Sustainable intensification of small-scale aquaculture systems depends on the local context and characteristics of producers
Sonja Radosavljevic, Ezio Venturino, Francesca Acotto +3
Aquaculture has been the fastest growing food production sector globally due to its potential to improve food security, stimulate economic growth, and reduce poverty. Its rapid dev…
A minimal model coupling communicable and non-communicable diseases
M. Marvá, E. Venturino, M. C. Vera
This work presents a model combining the simplest communicable and non-communicable disease models. The latter is, by far, the leading cause of sickness and death in the World, and…
Optimal Control of Aquatic Diseases: A Case Study of Yemen's Cholera Outbreak
Ana P. Lemos-Paiao, Cristiana J. Silva, Delfim F. M. Torres +1
We propose a mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of some strains of the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, responsible for the cholera disease in humans. We prove that, when t…
Well-posedness and positivity property for a reaction-diffusion model of plankton communities, involving a rational nonlinearity with singularity
Antoine Perasso, Quentin Richard, Irene Azzali +1
In this work, we consider a reaction-diffusion system, modeling the interaction between nutrients, phytoplanktons and zooplanktons. Using a semigroup approach in , we prove gl…
Modeling the effects of variable feeding patterns of larval ticks on the transmission of Borrelia lusitaniae and Borrelia afzelii
Luca Ferreri, Silvia Perazzo, Ezio Venturino +3
Spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia burgdoferi sensu lato (sl) group cause Lyme Borreliosis (LB), which is the most commonly reported vector-borne zoonosis in Europe. B. burgdorf…
Optimal Spraying in Biological Control of Pests
Cristiana J. Silva, Delfim F. M. Torres, Ezio Venturino
We use optimal control theory with the purpose of finding the best spraying policy with the aim of at least to minimize and possibly to eradicate the number of parasites, i.e., the…
