  Penguins are sentinels of the marine environment and, through their observation and research, one can learn on the nature and intensity of human impacts on the oceans of the Southem Hemisphere. The Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) inhabits Argentina, Chile and the Malvinas Islands, and visits the Brazilian continental shelf during its winter migration. A significant fraction o…

• Abstract

  We intend to develop a methodology based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to help the design of rabies vaccination campaigns in a certain locality. The animal (canine and feline) population for each census sector will be estimated using a census database for the human population and also estimates for the human:animal ratio. It will be possible to estimate the number of doses for d…

• Abstract

  In many countries, the increasing number of abandoned dogs is a major public health problem. The implementation of strategies to control the population growth could minimize the problems resulting from the dog abandonment such as aggression to human beings by bites and zoonotic transmission. Mathematical models can provide information that helps to estimate the effects of control populati…

• Abstract

  The animals' movements in a farms network and the spread of some animal diseases are intrinsically related. Therefore, comprehending the dynamics of the spreading of infectious diseases in these networks is an important tool in controlling these diseases. In this project, it is intended to establish a comparison between two control strategies (vaccination and restriction of movement) in n…

• Abstract

  An important factor for the introduction and spread of infectious disease in cattle is the animal movement between farm premises. Thus, the knowledge of characteristics of animal movement can help in the control and prevention of infectious diseases such as bovine brucellosis. So, for this study, we will use the following data: data of network of cattle movement obtained from the animal t…
