Predicting the economic costs and property value losses attributed to sudden oak death damage in California (2010-2020)
JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT, 92(4), 1292–1302.
author keywords: Natural disaster; Emerging infectious disease; Invasive species; Phytophthora ramorum
MeSH headings : California; Censuses; Communicable Diseases, Emerging / economics; Conservation of Natural Resources / economics; Conservation of Natural Resources / statistics & numerical data; Costs and Cost Analysis; Introduced Species / economics; Maps as Topic; Models, Biological; Phytophthora / pathogenicity; Plant Diseases / economics; Plant Diseases / parasitology; Plant Diseases / statistics & numerical data; Quercus / parasitology
TL;DR:
The simulations predict an expanding sudden oak death (SOD) infestation that will likely encompass most of northwestern California and warrant treatment, removal, and replacement of more than 10 thousand oak trees with discounted cost of $7.5 million.

Modeling of multi-strata forest fire severity using Landsat TM Data
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF APPLIED EARTH OBSERVATION AND GEOINFORMATION, 13(1), 120–126.
author keywords: Fire severity; Multi-strata; dNBR; Heterogeneous landscapes; Landsat TM
TL;DR:
It is found that the overall measure CBI is not optimal to represent multi-strata forest fire severity, and models using combinations of post-fire Landsat bands perform much better than NBR, dNBR, image differencing, and image ratioing.

Influence of Abiotic and Environmental Factors on the Density and Infection Prevalence of Ixodes pacificus (Acari: Ixodidae) With Borrelia burgdorferi
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL ENTOMOLOGY, 48(1), 20–28.
author keywords: abiotic limits; disease ecology; path analysis; spatial autocorrelation
MeSH headings : Animals; Borrelia burgdorferi / physiology; California; Ecosystem; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Ixodes / microbiology; Microclimate; Population Density; Quercus
TL;DR:
It is found that in certain years but not others, temperature maxima in the dry season may constrain the density and density of infected I. pacificus nymphs, and biotic or stochastic factors may play a more important role in determining tick density.

2011 journal article
Forest species diversity reduces disease risk in a generalist plant pathogen invasion
ECOLOGY LETTERS, 14(11), 1108–1116.
author keywords: Bayesian hierarchical model; emerging infectious disease; forest ecosystem; landscape epidemiology; Phytophthora ramorum; spatial autocorrelation; species diversity; sudden oak death; zero-inflation
MeSH headings : Bayes Theorem; Biodiversity; California; Ecosystem; Host Specificity; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Introduced Species; Linear Models; Models, Biological; Phytophthora / pathogenicity; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plants; Population Density; Trees / microbiology
TL;DR:
Evidence is found for pathogen dilution, whereby disease risk was lower in sites with higher species diversity, after accounting for potentially confounding effects of host density and landscape heterogeneity, suggesting that although nearly all plants in the ecosystem are hosts, alternative hosts may dilute disease transmission by competent hosts, thereby buffering forest health from infectious disease.

Epidemiological modeling of invasion in heterogeneous landscapes: spread of sudden oak death in California (1990-2030)
ECOSPHERE, 2(2).
author keywords: computational biology; emerging infectious disease; GIS; landscape epidemiology; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Phytophthora ramorum; spatial heterogeneity; species distribution model
TL;DR:
S spatio-temporal, stochastic epidemiological modeling in combination with realistic geographical modeling is used to predict the spread of the sudden oak death pathogen through heterogeneous host populations in wildland forests, subject to fluctuating weather conditions.

Seasonal detection of three types of "pygmy" blue whale calls in the Indian Ocean
MARINE MAMMAL SCIENCE, 27(4), 828–840.
author keywords: blue whale; pygmy blue whale; Balaenoptera musculus spp.; passive acoustics; Indian Ocean
TL;DR:
Differences in geographic and seasonal patterns of these three distinct call types suggest that they may represent separate acoustic populations of pygmy blue whales and that these “acoustic populations” should be considered when assessing conservation needs of blue whales in the Indian Ocean.

Guest Editors' Introduction to the Special Issue on "Computer Models and Spatial Statistics for Environmental Science"
Reich, B. J., & Haran, M. (2011, December). JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL STATISTICS, Vol. 16, pp. 451–452.
TL;DR:
Researchers tackle several important statistical problems that arise in the analysis of computer model output, for example calibrating model output with observed data, comparing and combing output from several computer models and physical observations, and building statistical emulators for computer models to predict the outcome of the models for new sets of input conditions.

Climate Projections Using Bayesian Model Averaging and Space-Time Dependence
JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL STATISTICS, 16(4), 606–628.
author keywords: Bayesian hierarchical modeling; Bayesian model averaging; Climate change; Climate model; Gaussian process; Space-time data
TL;DR:
This work analyzes the problem of combining multiple climate models using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) to derive future projections and quantify uncertainty estimates of spatiotemporally resolved temperature hindcasts and projections and achieves computational efficiency using a kernel mixing approach for representing a space–time process.

author keywords: Central subspace; Directional regression; Probit link function; Sliced inverse regression; Sufficient dimension reduction
MeSH headings : Bayes Theorem; Data Interpretation, Statistical; HIV; Humans; Models, Statistical
