A Theoretical Analysis of the Geography of Schistosomiasis in Burkina Faso Highlights the Roles of Human Mobility and Water Resources Development in Disease Transmission

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 ...

Floquet theory for seasonal environmental forcing of spatially explicit waterborne epidemics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

The transmission of waterborne pathogens is a complex process that is heavily linked to the spatial characteristics of the underlying environmental matrix as well as to the temporal variability of the relevant hydroclimatological drivers. In this work, we ...

Fluvial network organization imprints on microbial co-occurrence networks

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Serena Ceola, Tom Ian Battin

Recent studies highlight linkages among the architecture of ecological networks, their persistence facing environmental disturbance, and the related patterns of biodiversity. A hitherto unresolved question is whether the structure of the landscape inhabite ...

Metapopulation persistence and species spread in river networks

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

River networks define ecological corridors characterised by unidirectional streamflow, which may impose downstream drift to aquatic organisms or affect their movement. Animals and plants manage to persist in riverine ecosystems, though, which in fact harbo ...

Hydrologic controls on basin- scale distribution of benthic invertebrates

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Serena Ceola, Tom Ian Battin

Streamflow variability is a major determinant of basin-scale distributions of benthic invertebrates. Here we present a novel procedure based on a probabilistic approach aiming at a spatially explicit quantitative assessment of benthic invertebrate abundanc ...

SEHR-ECHO v1.0: a Spatially Explicit Hydrologic Response model for ecohydrologic applications

Bettina Schaefli, Cédric Imfeld, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Ludovico Nicotina, Pierfrancesco Da Ronco

This paper presents the Spatially Explicit Hydrologic Response (SEHR) model developed at the Laboratory of Ecohydrology of the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne for the simulation of hydrological processes at the catchment scale. The key concept of ...

Cholera in the Lake Kivu region (DRC): Integrating remote sensing and spatially explicit epidemiological modeling

Flavio Finger, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto, Allyn Christine Knox

Mathematical models of cholera dynamics can not only help in identifying environmental drivers and processes that influence disease transmission, but may also represent valuable tools for the prediction of the epidemiological patterns in time and space as ...

Optimizing a remotely sensed proxy for plankton biomass in Lake Kivu

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Allyn Christine Knox

Many regions of the world, including inland lakes, present with suboptimal conditions for the remotely sensed retrieval of optical signals, thus challenging the limits of available satellite data-processing tools, such as atmospheric correction models (ACM ...

Glucose- but Not Rice-Based Oral Rehydration Therapy Enhances the Production of Virulence Determinants in the Human Pathogen Vibrio cholerae

Flavio Finger, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Melanie Blokesch, Marino Gatto, Juliane Kühn

Despite major attempts to prevent cholera transmission, millions of people worldwide still must address this devastating disease. Cholera research has so far mainly focused on the causative agent, the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, or on disease treatment, but ...

Light and hydrologic variability as drivers of stream biofilm dynamics in a flume experiment

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Serena Ceola, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto, Gianluca Botter, Tom Ian Battin

We run a comparative study of the results of flume experiments and several dynamic models reproducing the effects of streamflow variability on biofilm (i.e. periphyton) temporal dynamics. During the experiment, two contrasting flow regimes, characterised b ...

Hydrologic Variability Affects Invertebrate Grazing on Phototrophic Biofilms in Stream Microcosms

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Serena Ceola, Lorenzo Mari, Gianluca Botter, Tom Ian Battin

The temporal variability of streamflow is known to be a key feature structuring and controlling fluvial ecological communities and ecosystem processes. Although alterations of streamflow regime due to habitat fragmentation or other anthropogenic factors ar ...

Spatially Explicit Conditions for Waterborne Pathogen Invasion

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

Waterborne pathogens cause many possibly lethal human diseases. We derive the condition for pathogen invasion and subsequent disease outbreak in a territory with specific, space-inhomogeneous characteristics (hydrological, ecological, demographic, and epid ...

Headwaters are critical reservoirs of microbial diversity for fluvial networks

Enrico Bertuzzo, Tom Ian Battin

Streams and rivers form conspicuous networks on the Earth and are among nature's most effective integrators. Their dendritic structure reaches into the terrestrial landscape and accumulates water and sediment en route from abundant headwater streams to a s ...

Rainfall mediations in the spreading of epidemic cholera

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

Following the empirical evidence of a clear correlation between rainfall events and cholera resurgence that was observed in particular during the recent outbreak in Haiti, a spatially explicit model of epidemic cholera is re-examined. Specifically, we test ...

Catchment-scale herbicides transport: Theory and application

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Gianluca Botter

This paper proposes and tests a model which couples the description of hydrologic flow and transport of herbicides at catchment scales. The model accounts for streamflow components' age to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicide flux con ...

Biophysical controls on cluster dynamics and architectural differentiation of microbial biofilms in contrasting flow environments

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Samir Suweis, Lorenzo Mari, Tom Ian Battin

Ecology, with a traditional focus on plants and animals, seeks to understand the mechanisms underlying structure and dynamics of communities. In microbial ecology, the focus is changing from planktonic communities to attached biofilms that dominate microbi ...

Geomorphic signatures on brutsaert base flow recession analysis

Marc Parlange, Raphaël Mutzner, Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Nevena Tomasic, Serena Ceola, Ludovico Nicotina, Steven Vincent Weijs

This paper addresses the signatures of catchment geomorphology on base flow recession curves. Its relevance relates to the implied predictability of base flow features, which are central to catchment-scale transport processes and to ecohydrological functio ...

Modelling cholera epidemics: the role of waterways, human mobility and sanitation

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

We investigate the role of human mobility as a driver for long-range spreading of cholera infections, which primarily propagate through hydrologically controlled ecological corridors. Our aim is to build a spatially explicit model of a disease epidemic, wh ...

Hydroclimatology of dual-peak annual cholera incidence: Insights from a spatially explicit model

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

Cholera incidence in some regions of the Indian subcontinent may exhibit two annual peaks although the main environmental drivers that have been linked to the disease (e.g., sea surface temperature, zooplankton abundance, river discharge) peak once per yea ...

Reassessment of the 2010-2011 Haiti cholera outbreak and rainfall-driven multiseason projections

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

Mathematical models can provide key insights into the course of an ongoing epidemic, potentially aiding real-time emergency management in allocating health care resources and by anticipating the impact of alternative interventions. We study the ex post rel ...
