• Echinostome infection in green frogs (Rana clamitans) is stage and age dependent (2007, background): “Urbanization is one of the forms of anthropogenic change that is being investigated for its role in disease emergence (Morse, 1995; Schrag & Wiener, 1995; Gratz, 1999; Patz et al., 2000; Daszak et al., 2001).”
• Ranavirus Ecology and Evolution: From Epidemiology to Extinction (2015, background): “Indeed, many emerging infectious diseases have been linked to human activity, including land-use change and pollution (Daszak et al. 2001 ).”
• The Emergence of Global Systemic Risk (2015, background): “In perhaps the most obvious causal feedback system, the climate change produced by the human global system might produce environments in which new diseases can develop (Altizer et al. 2013, Daszak et al. 2001).”
• FISHING FOR LOBSTERS INDIRECTLY INCREASES EPIDEMICS IN SEA URCHINS (2004, background): “There has been substantial interest in how environmental change, in general, can contribute to emerging diseases (Daszak et al. 2001).”
• Unhealthy Landscapes: Policy Recommendations on Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence (2004, background): “Logging and road building in Latin America have increased the incidence of cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis (Desjeux 2001), which in some areas has resulted from an increase in the number of fox reservoirs and sandfly vectors that have adapted to the peridomestic environment (Patz et al. 2000).”
• Non-native aquatic animals introductions have driven disease emergence in Europe (2011, background): “Similar arguments may also be advanced for B. dendrobatidis, the cause of chytridiomycosis, a fungal disease which has been the cause of dramatic declines of a wide range of amphibian populations (Hyatt et al. 2000) in Australia and Central America (Daszak et al. 2001a).”
• Estimating lion population variables: prey and disease effects in Kruger National Park, South Africa. (2010, background): “Several factors may impose on these (Daszak et al. 2001) and carry undesirable consequences for human society (Daszak et al.”
• The One Health Concept: 10 Years Old and a Long Road Ahead (2018, background): “Habitat destruction and fragmentation, environmental pollution, and climate change have a confirmed catalyst effect on the occurrence and geographic distribution of infectious agents (26, 27, 28).”
• Zoonosis emergence linked to agricultural intensification and environmental change (2013, neutral): “This occurs against a background of pathogen evolution and selection pressure, leading to emergence of pathogen strains that are adapted to the new conditions (66).”
• Some (worms) like it hot: fish parasites grow faster in warmer water, and alter host thermal preferences (2012, background): “…effects on hostparasite interactions, with the expectation that infectious diseases will impact more severely on human health (Patz et al., 1996; McMichael et al., 2006), the productivity of crops (Anderson et al., 2004) and on wildlife (Harvell et al., 1999; Daszak et al., 2001; Dobson, 2009).”
• The dynamics, transmission, and population impacts of avian malaria in native Hawaiian birds: a modeling approach (2011, background): “…an evaluation of biotic and abiotic factors on vector-borne diseases such as human malaria (Pascual et al. 2006), dengue (Effler et al. 2005), and West Nile virus (Barker et al. 2009), which affect humans, domestic animals, and wildlife (Daszak et al. 2001, Harvell et al. 2009, Randolph 2009).”
