This study models how demographic variation affects bat population dynamics and disease spread, finding that increased variation in survival rates can lead to population decline and reduced disease persistence.

This study predicts future West Nile Virus risk in the UK by combining species distribution models of vectors, hosts, and climate scenarios.

The paper validates a bovine tuberculosis model against a field study of badger vaccination with selective culling, showing similar outcomes when social perturbation is excluded.

This study predicts West Nile Virus risk across Europe using species distribution modeling, showing increased risk in some areas and decreased risk in others under future climate scenarios.

This study evaluates movement rules for simulating species dispersal in a mosaic landscape model, showing that simpler rules produce less accurate dispersal kernels compared to more complex ones.
