Changing measurements or changing movements? Sampling scale and movement model identifiability across generations of biologging technology
Leah R. Johnson, Philipp H. Boersch-Supan, Richard A. Phillips +1
1. Animal movement patterns contribute to our understanding of variation in breeding success and survival of individuals, and the implications for population dynamics. 2. Over time…
Phenomenological forecasting of disease incidence using heteroskedastic Gaussian processes: a dengue case study
Leah R. Johnson, Robert B. Gramacy, Jeremy Cohen +6
In 2015 the US federal government sponsored a dengue forecasting competition using historical case data from Iquitos, Peru and San Juan, Puerto Rico. Competitors were evaluated on…
Hunting, food subsidies, and mesopredator release: the dynamics of crop-raiding baboons in a managed landscape
Rachel A. Taylor, Sadie J. Ryan, Justin S. Brashares +1
The establishment of protected areas or parks has become an important tool for wildlife conservation. However, frequent occurrences of human-wildlife conflict at the edges of these…
A Global Map of Suitability for Coastal Vibrio cholerae Under Current and Future Climate Conditions
Luis E. Escobar, Sadie J. Ryan, Anna M. Stewart-Ibarra +4
Vibrio cholerae is a globally distributed water-borne pathogen that causes severe diarrheal disease and mortality, with current outbreaks as part of the seventh pandemic. Further u…
Malaria control and senescence: the importance of accounting for the pace and shape of aging in wild mosquitoes
Sadie J. Ryan, Tal Ben-Horin, Leah R. Johnson
The assumption that vector mortality remains constant with age is used widely to assess malaria transmission risk and predict the public health consequences of vector control strat…
Population pressure and global markets drive a decade of forest cover change in Africa's Albertine Rift
Sadie J. Ryan, Michael Palace, Joel Hartter +3
The Albertine Rift region faces rapid human population growth, while being a biodiversity hotspot. Using satellite-derived continuous forest cover change data, we examined national…
Spatiotemporal clustering, climate periodicity, and social-ecological risk factors for dengue during an outbreak in Machala, Ecuador, in 2010
Anna M. Stewart Ibarra, Angel G. Munoz, Sadie J. Ryan +7
The objective of this study was to characterize the spatiotemporal dynamics and climatic and social-ecological risk factors associated with the largest dengue epidemic to date in M…
Mapping physiological suitability limits of malaria in Africa under climate change
Sadie J. Ryan, Amy McNally, Leah R. Johnson +4
We mapped current and future temperature suitability for malaria transmission in Africa using a published model that incorporates nonlinear physiological responses to temperature o…
Understanding uncertainty in temperature effects on vector-borne disease: A Bayesian approach
Leah R. Johnson, Tal Ben-Horin, Kevin D. Lafferty +5
Extrinsic environmental factors influence the distribution and population dynamics of many organisms, including insects that are of concern for human health and agriculture. This i…
