Pathogen spillover in disease epidemics.
In field experiments manipulating generalist pathogens and host community composition, the presence of a highly susceptible reservoir species drove disease dynamics in multiple nonreservoir species, sometimes decreasing their abundance through apparent competition. The dynamics of generalist pathogens in multispecies host communities remain a major frontier for disease ecology. Of particular in...
متن کاملEconomics of Forest Land Conversion and Fragmentation
This paper looks at the economics of conversion and fragmentation of forest land. The forestry economics literature has generally focussed on the management of a single stand for timber and non-timber forest benefits with little attention being paid to forest level land use decisions, and in particular forest stand interactions. As noted by Bowes and Krutilla (1989), the focus on a single stand...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal analysis of rural-urban land conversion
Understanding the complexity of urban expansion requires an analysis of the factors influencing the spatial and temporal processes of rural-urban land conversion. This study aims at building a statistical land conversion model to assist in understanding land use change patterns. Specifically, GIS coupled with a logistic regression model and exponential smoothing techniques is used for exploring...
متن کاملCO2 fluxes of transitional bioenergy crops: effect of land conversion during the first year of cultivation
The present study examined the effect of land conversion on carbon (C) fluxes using the eddy covariance technique at seven sites in southwestern Michigan (USA). Four sites had been managed as grasslands under the Conservation Reserve Program of the USDA. Three fields had previously been cultivated in a corn/soybean rotation with corn until 2008. The effects of land use change were studied durin...
