The distribution of ticks is essentially determined by the presence of climatic conditions and ecological contexts suitable for their survival and development.
We have developed a general tick biology model to study the major trends due to climate change on tick population dynamics under different climate conditions.
We build a model that explicitl...

... simulations. We observe for the long term simulations, 1902 − 2005, that tick populations remain high over time in the three countries, indicating that a susceptible adaptation to only low temperatures is sufficient to keep ticks alive in a variety of different environments (see figure 9). ...

... Senegal, the first peak was observed in the period 1930 − 1940 (slightly earlier than in Canada) and the second around the 1980's. There is also another smaller peak in the 1960's ( figure 9c). On the other hand, the fluctuations in density are smaller in Canada than in the other two countries. ...

Water transport inside carbon nano-tubes (CNTs) has attracted considerable attention due to its nano-fluidic properties, its importance in nonporous systems, and the wide range of applications in membrane desalination and biological medicine. Recent studies show an enhancement of water diffusion inside nano-channels depending on the size of the nan...
