Os mosquitos e as doenças que transmitem causam graves problemas de saúde pública, especialmente nas regiões tropicais. As doenças transmitidas por mosquitos, como a malária, a dengue, a filariose linfática, a encefalite japonesa, o vírus chikungunya e o vírus Zika, são doenças que circulam atualmente em muitos países e que se tornaram um problema mundial. O controlo dos mosquitos tornou-se mais complexo devido às alterações no seu comportamento e a outros factores como a globalização, a urbanização não planeada e a desflorestação. Vivemos agora num mundo sem fronteiras e, por isso, as doenças transmitidas por mosquitos podem facilmente causar epidemias em qualquer país tropical se não forem tomadas medidas de controlo. Este livro trata da biologia e do controlo dos mosquitos de importância para a saúde pública, especialmente no Sudeste Asiático. São discutidos os desafios enfrentados pelos profissionais de saúde pública e os novos paradigmas para o controlo dos vectores.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
