The epidemicity index of recurrent SARS-CoV-2 infections

Andrea Rinaldo

Several indices can predict the long-term fate of emerging infectious diseases and the effect of their containment measures, including a variety of reproduction numbers (e.g. R-0). Other indices evaluate the potential for transient increases of epidemics e ...

Characterizing human mobility patterns in rural settings of sub-Saharan Africa

Andrea Rinaldo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Theophile Mande

Human mobility is a core component of human behavior and its quantification is critical for understanding its impact on infectious disease transmission, traffic forecasting, access to resources and care, intervention strategies, and migratory flows. When m ...

A Note on the Role of Seasonal Expansions and Contractions of the Flowing Fluvial Network on Metapopulation Persistence

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin

Does a dynamic drainage density have a role on species persistence in the river basin? The general viability of a focus species under time-varying hydrologic connectivity and habitat quality is a topic gaining traction in view of recent advances in our und ...

True scale-free networks hidden by finite size effects

Andrea Rinaldo, Samir Suweis, Amos Maritan

We analyze about 200 naturally occurring networks with distinct dynamical origins to formally test whether the commonly assumed hypothesis of an underlying scale-free structure is generally viable. This has recently been questioned on the basis of statisti ...

Range of reproduction number estimates for COVID-19 spread

Andrea Rinaldo, Joseph Chadi Benoit Lemaitre

To monitor local and global COVID-19 outbreaks, and to plan containment measures, accessible and comprehensible decision-making tools need to be based on the growth rates of new confirmed infections, hospitalization or case fatality rates. Growth rates of ...

Dynamic spatio-temporal patterns of metapopulation occupancy in patchy habitats

Andrea Rinaldo

Spatio-temporal dynamics in habitat suitability and connectivity among mosaics of heterogeneous wetlands are critical for biological diversity and species persistence in aquatic patchy landscapes. Despite the recognized importance of stochastic hydroclimat ...

Earth and field observations underpin metapopulation dynamics in complex landscapes: Near-term study on carabids

Andrea Rinaldo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Jonathan Giezendanner, Damiano Pasetto

Understanding risks to biodiversity requires predictions of the spatial distribution of species adapting to changing ecosystems and, to that end, Earth observations integrating field surveys prove essential as they provide key numbers for assessing landsca ...

Tree water deficit and dynamic source water partitioning

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Mitra Asadollahi

The stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen (delta H-2 and delta O-18, respectively) have been widely used to investigate tree water source partitioning. These tracers have shed new light on patterns of tree water use in time and space. However, there are s ...

Advancing ecohydrology in the 21st century: A convergence of opportunities

Andrea Rinaldo, Nicolaas Cornelis van de Giesen, Gabriel George Katul

Nature-based solutions for water-resource challenges require advances in the science of ecohydrology. Current understanding is limited by a shortage of observations and theories that can further our capability to synthesize complex processes across scales ...

Estimation spatiale des précipitations et assimilation de données de débit pour la prévision hydrologique en milieu alpin

Giovanni De Cesare, Bettina Schaefli, Anton Schleiss, Javier García Hernández, Alain Tommy Foehn, Andrea Rinaldo

L’étude présentée propose des solutions à certains défis rencontrés dans le cadre du système de prévision et de gestion des crues MINERVE du Canton du Valais, opérationnel depuis 2013. Le premier axe de recherche est dédié à l’interpolation spatiale des pr ...

Biological fluid dynamics of airborne COVID-19 infection

Andrea Rinaldo

We review the state of knowledge on the bio-fluid dynamic mechanisms involved in the transmission of the infection from SARS-CoV-2. The relevance of the subject stems from the key role of airborne virus transmission by viral particles released by an infect ...

Toward catchment hydro-biogeochemical theories

Ilja van Meerveld, Andrea Rinaldo, Li Li, Paolo Benettin

Headwater catchments are the fundamental units that connect the land to the ocean. Hydrological flow and biogeochemical processes are intricately coupled, yet their respective sciences have progressed without much integration. Reaction kinetic theories tha ...

SESTET: A spatially explicit stream temperature model based on equilibrium temperature

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Luca Carraro, Marco Toffolon

Stream-water temperature is a key variable controlling chemical, biological, and ecological processes in freshwater environments. Most models focus on a single river cross-section; however, temperature gradients along stretches and tributaries of a river n ...

The geography of COVID-19 spread in Italy and implications for the relaxation of confinement measures

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto, Damiano Pasetto

The pressing need to restart socioeconomic activities locked-down to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in Italy must be coupled with effective methodologies to selectively relax containment measures. Here we employ a spatially explicit model, properly atten ...

Transport and Water Age Dynamics in Soils: A Comparative Study of Spatially Integrated and Spatially Explicit Models

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Mitra Asadollahi

We address transport by transit times (i.e., the age of water parcels leaving a storage as discharge, deep loss, or evapotranspiration) in subvertical soil systems, key to our understanding of water quality in catchments and streams. While the use of field ...

Generation and application of river network analogues for use in ecology and evolution

Reinhard Furrer, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Florian Altermatt, Luca Carraro

Several key processes in freshwater ecology are governed by the connectivity inherent to dendritic river networks. These have extensively been analyzed from a geomorphological and hydrological viewpoint, yet structures classically used in ecological modeli ...

Spread and dynamics of the COVID-19 epidemic in Italy: Effects of emergency containment measures

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto, Luca Carraro

The spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Italy prompted drastic measures for transmission containment. We examine the effects of these interventions, based on modeling of the unfolding epidemic. We test modeling options of the spatially explici ...

Assessing the impact of non-pharmaceutical interventions on SARS-CoV-2 transmission in Switzerland

Andrea Rinaldo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Joseph Chadi Benoit Lemaitre, Jacques Fellay

Following the rapid dissemination of COVID-19 cases in Switzerland, large-scale non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) were implemented by the cantons and the federal government between 28 February and 20 March 2020. Estimates of the impact of these inter ...
