Sentence examples for host movement from inspiring English sources

Analysis of the basic reproductive number and simulations indicate that host movement across this small network influences the severity of epidemics.

Our results suggest that when modeling environmentally-transmitted parasites, explicitly considering spatial patterns of environmental persistence and host movement behaviour provides insight into transmission dynamics of specific landscape-host-parasite systems.

Though this model needs refinements such as a smaller spatial resolution, it provides insight into responses of B. microplus or B. annulatus populations to specific weather patterns, habitat heterogeneity, and host movement.

No evidence to suggest the presence of a threshold in parasite prevalence was found, which may be due to the high rate of host movement and transiency within the system.

This model uses distance-weighted, population size-dependent coupling to estimate host movement and disease incidence in metapopulations.

To develop our understanding of the impact of human host movement on mosquito borne disease dynamics we construct and analyze a series of metapopulation models.

Questions remain regarding the ecological causes (e.g., climate change, host movements, or new adaptations) of the ongoing range expansion of B. burgdorferi s.l. and on the genomic variations associated with its ecological and clinical variability.

Identification of barriers to rabies host movements is important as this information can be used to improve disease containment strategies.

Combined with a synthesis of avian diversity and abundance, intercontinental host movements, and genetic analyses, our results suggest that the risk and probably the frequency of intercontinental virus transfer in this region are relatively low.

Possible exceptions include the use of evolved patterns of genetic diversity across landscapes to understand host movements as a proxy for landscape-scale transmission risk (Blanchong et al. 2008; Lee et al. 2012).

The objectives of this study were to use landscape genetic approaches to investigate the potential of the Richelieu River to act as a natural barrier to RRV host movements that may be used to increase the efficiency of RRV control methods in the future and to evaluate the potential for RRV spread outside the current infected area.
