The critical role of permanent voucher specimens of hosts and vectors in public health and epidemiology

TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest to the public health, epidemiology, and disease ecology communities that careful biodiversity documentation is critical to full description of disease research, and suggest that voucher specimens should be deposited in an appropriate scientific collection, and catalog numbers reported in publications, such as the GenBank database.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testing environmental correlates of clines in clades: an example from cassidine beetles.

TL;DR: The results indicate that morphological divergence occurs along with high levels of environmental overlap; perhaps historical biogeographic factors along with sexual selection may have promoted its diversification.

Exploring Reproducibility and FAIR Principles in Data Science Using Ecological Niche Modeling as a Case Study

TL;DR: A conceptual model for reproducibility is proposed to specify its main attributes and properties, along with a framework that allows for computational experiments to be findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable, and a case study in ecological niche modeling is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preliminary risk maps for transmission of kyasanur forest disease in Southern India.

TL;DR: This contribution uses known occurrences of Kyasanur forest disease from the year 2000 till date to create and test a correlational ecological niche model that translates into preliminary transmission risk maps, which are summarized in terms of risk presented in each district in the region, as well as across peninsular India.
