Download or read book Microbial Zoonoses and Sapronoses written by Zdenek Hubálek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the state of art in the field of microbial zoonoses and sapronoses. It could be used as a textbook or manual in microbiology and medical zoology for students of human and veterinary medicine, including Ph.D. students, and for biomedicine scientists and medical practitioners and specialists as well. Surprisingly, severe zoonoses and sapronoses still appear that are either entirely new (e.g., SARS), newly recognized (Lyme borreliosis), resurging (West Nile fever in Europe), increasing in incidence (campylobacterosis), spatially expanding (West Nile fever in the Americas), with a changing range of hosts and/or vectors, with changing clinical manifestations or acquiring antibiotic resistance. The collective term for those diseases is (re)emerging infections, and most of them represent zoonoses and sapronoses (the rest are anthroponoses). The number of known zoonotic and sapronotic pathogens of humans is continually growing − over 800 today. In the introductory part, short characteristics are given of infectious and epidemic process, including the role of environmental factors, possibilities of their epidemiological surveillance, and control. Much emphasis is laid on ecological aspects of these diseases (haematophagous vectors and their life history; vertebrate hosts of zoonoses; habitats of the agents and their geographic distribution; natural focality of diseases). Particular zoonoses and sapronoses are then characterized in the following brief paragraphs: source of human infection; animal disease; transmission mode; human disease; epidemiology; diagnostics; therapy; geographic distribution.

Download or read book Wildlife Population Growth Rates written by R. M. Sibly and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-08-07 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What determines where a species lives? And what determines its abundance? This book takes a fresh approach to some of the classic questions in ecology. Despite great progress in the twentieth century much more remains to be done before we can provide full answers to these questions. The methods described and deployed in this book point the way forward. The core message of the book is that the key insights come from understanding what determines population growth rate, and that application of this approach will make ecology a more predictive science. Topics covered include population regulation, density-dependence, the ecological niche, resource and interference competition, habitat fragmentation and the ecological effects of environmental stress, together with applications to conservation biology, wildlife management, human demography and ecotoxicology. After a substantial introduction by the editors the book brings together contributions from leading scientists from Australia, New Zealand, North America, Europe and the U.K.

Download or read book The Estimation of Animal Abundance and Related Parameters written by George Arthur Frederick Seber and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1982, this reprint of the second edition of The Estimation of Animal Abundance and Related Parameters has been described as the "bible" of the field. Censuses of living populations are required for many purposes in wildlife management, fisheries and pest control and they are essential in policy making for the protection of the environment. In this book Professor Seber, one of the leading experts in the field, explains in detail the methods that have been developed by ecologists for estimating animal numbers and related parameters such as mortality and birth rates. He insists on the importance of experimental design and describes a great variety of statistical techniques that are required in analyzing the data obtained. These designs and techniques are classified for easy reference according to the particular types of problems encountered by the field worker and the kind of information that is available. The assumptions underlying practical methods in current use are fully examined, together with procedures for testing their validity. Each method is demonstrated by at least one worked example; in all there are over 90 such examples, mostly using data obtained from natural or free-ranging populations around the world. Ecologists will find this book - the first full-length treatment of its subject - a sound statistical assessment of methods which in the past were frequently developed on an intuitive basis; while applied mathematicians will benefit no less from a study of the interaction between mathematics and biology in this important branch of statistics. Field workers will be stimulated and helped by the real-life examples and the practical nature of the work. "George Seber's book became an instant classic following its publication in 1973. It dealt comprehensively with previously published research on methods for estimating abundance and demographic parameters of animal populations. Professor Seber provided detailed reviews of methods that were originally published with adequate statistical development, and he provided derivations and development for intuitive estimators that had been initially presented by ecologists. The second edition of the book was published in 1982 and included substantive additional coverage of "new" developments that had occurred since 1973. The 1982 book has become a citation classic and can be found on the bookshelf of every serious animal population ecologist and every biostatistician dealing with animal population data. For the 20 years since its publication, it has remained the only book of its kind. Many important methodological developments have occurred in animal estimation problems since 1982, but virtually all such methods represent extensions of the initial methods described by Seber (1982). Several excellent monographs and books have been written over the last 2 decades that deal in detail with particular subsets of the material in Seber (1982). What is remarkable is that these recent contributions have not superseded Seber's book, but are best viewed as supplements to his original comprehensive treatment. Thus, Seber's (1982) book can still be found on the bookshelf of every serious animal population ecologist and biostatistician. Now, in 2002, it is surrounded on the bookshelf by a handful of related books and monographs, but it has not lost its relevance or importance and remains the most detailed, comprehensive treatment of methods to estimate animal abundance and related parameters." Jim Nichols, Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, U.S. Geological Survey, Laurel, MD Professor Seber, Professor Emeritus at the University of Auckland, is regarded as the world's foremost authority on statistical methods for estimating the size of animal populations. His early work on capture-recapture methods was groundbreaking and the Jolly-Seber method still forms the basis of most modern work, more than 30 years after his first paper on the method in 1962.
