Climate-driven endemic cholera is modulated by human mobility in a megacity

Andrea Rinaldo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez

Although a differential sensitivity of cholera dynamics to climate variability has been reported in the spatially heterogeneous megacity of Dhaka, Bangladesh, the specific patterns of spread of the resulting risk within the city remain unclear. We build on ...

On the probability of extinction of the Haiti cholera epidemic

Flavio Finger, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

More than three years after its appearance in Haiti, cholera has already caused more than 8,500 deaths and 695,000 infections and it is feared to become endemic. However, no clear evidence of a stable environmental reservoir of pathogenic Vibrio cholerae, ...

Mobile phone data highlights the role of mass gatherings in the spreading of cholera outbreaks

Flavio Finger, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari

The spatiotemporal evolution of human mobility and the related fluctuations of population density are known to be key drivers of the dynamics of infectious disease outbreaks. These factors are particularly relevant in the case of mass gatherings, which may ...

Statistical characterization of spatiotemporal sediment dynamics in the Venice lagoon

Andrea Rinaldo, Gianluca Botter

Characterizing the dynamics of suspended sediment is crucial when investigating the long-term evolution of tidal landscapes. Here we apply a widely tested mathematical model which describes the dynamics of cohesive and noncohesive sediments, driven by the ...

Field study on drainage densities and rescaled width functions in a high‐altitude alpine catchment

Marc Parlange, Raphaël Mutzner, Andrea Rinaldo

This paper addresses the effect of accurately mapping spatially heterogeneous drainage densities in high-altitude alpine basins on Rescaled Width Functions (RWFs), used in some applications as a minimalist model of the hydrologic response. The channel netw ...

Geomorphic controls on elevational gradients of species richness

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt

Elevational gradients of biodiversity have been widely investigated, and yet a clear interpretation of the biotic and abiotic factors that determine how species richness varies with elevation is still elusive. In mountainous landscapes, habitats at differe ...

An epidemiological model for proliferative kidney disease in salmonid populations

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

Background: Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) affects salmonid populations in European and North-American rivers. It is caused by the endoparasitic myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, which exploits freshwater bryozoans and salmonids as hosts. Inciden ...

The temporal patterns of disease severity and prevalence in schistosomiasis

Andrea Rinaldo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

Schistosomiasis is one of the most widespread public health problems in the world. In this work, we introduce an eco-epidemiological model for its transmission and dynamics with the purpose of explaining both intra-and inter-annual fluctuations of disease ...

Scale-dependent effects of solar radiation patterns on the snow-dominated hydrologic response

Bettina Schaefli, Michael Lehning, Andrea Rinaldo, Francesco Comola, Gianluca Botter, Pierfrancesco Da Ronco, Mathias Thierry Pierre Bavay

Solar radiation is a dominant driver of snowmelt dynamics and streamflow generation in alpine catchments. A better understanding of how solar radiation patterns affect the hydrologic response is needed to assess when calibrated temperature-index models are ...

Tracking residence times in hydrological systems: forward and backward formulations

Andrea Rinaldo, Gianluca Botter, Paolo Benettin

In recent years, several papers contributed to the development and clarification of key theoretical issues underlying the formulation of transport by travel time distributions in catchments. Such a formulation provides a robust description of the temporal ...

Storage selection functions: A coherent framework for quantifying how catchments store and release water and solutes

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Gianluca Botter, Paolo Benettin

We discuss a recent theoretical approach combining catchment-scale flow and transport processes into a unified framework. The approach is designed to characterize the hydrochemistry of hydrologic systems and to meet the challenges posed by empirical eviden ...

Linking water age and solute dynamics in streamflow at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, NH, USA

Andrea Rinaldo, Gianluca Botter, Paolo Benettin

We combine experimental and modeling results from a headwater catchment at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF), New Hampshire, USA, to explore the link between stream solute dynamics and water age. A theoretical framework based on water age dynami ...

Thermodynamics in the hydrologic response: Travel time formulation and application to Alpine catchments

Bettina Schaefli, Michael Lehning, Andrea Rinaldo, Francesco Comola

This paper presents a spatially-explicit model for hydro-thermal response simulations of Alpine catchments, accounting for advective and non-advective energy fluxes in stream networks characterized by arbitrary degrees of geomorphological complexity. The r ...

Sample and population exponents of generalized Taylor's law

Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan, Andrea Giometto

Taylor's law (TL) states that the variance V of a nonnegative random variable is a power function of its mean M; i.e., V = aM(b). TL has been verified extensively in ecology, where it applies to population abundance, physics, and other natural sciences. It ...

Detection of Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 in environmental waters of rural Bangladesh: a flow-cytometry-based field trial

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Righetto, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

Presence of Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 in the waters of the rural area of Matlab, Bangladesh, was investigated with quantitative measurements performed with a portable flow cytometer. The relevance of this work relates to the testing of a field ...

Inferring species interactions in ecological communities: a comparison of methods at different levels of complexity

Andrea Rinaldo, Francesco Carrara, Andrea Giometto, Florian Altermatt

Natural communities commonly contain many different species and functional groups, and multiple types of species interactions act simultaneously, such as competition, predation, commensalism or mutualism. However, experimental and theoretical investigat ...

Demodulation of time series highlights impacts of hydrologic drivers on the Everglades ecosystem

Andrea Rinaldo

In the context of climatic uncertainty and potential climatic change, incorporating climatic variability and change in eco-hydrological analysis, as well as understanding the impact of such variability on ecosystems, is of crucial importance. The latter is ...

Yeli Mariam Sou, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

We study the geography of schistosomiasis across Burkina Faso by means of a spatially explicit model of water-based disease dynamics. The model quantitatively addresses the geographic stratification of disease burden in a novel framework by explicitly acco ...
