Clinically relevant antimicrobial resistance at the wildlife–livestock–human interface in Nairobi: An epidemiological study
Publicado 2019“…Generalised linear mixed models were used to determine whether the prevalence of antimicrobial resistant phenotypes and multidrug-resistant E coli carriage in urban wildlife is linked to variation in ecological traits, such as foraging behaviour, and to determine household-level risk factors for sharing of antimicrobial resistance between humans, wildlife, and livestock. …”

Framework for co-development of an open hydrological data system to enhance climate resilience in climate vulnerable countries: experience from a digital groundwater monitoring pil...
Publicado 2021“…The framework highlights the issues of inclusion and social sustainability, the use of models, digital technologies, and open and citizen science approaches and considers direct the policy implication of the social-ecological nature of water management: (i) field data availability as a key constraint for advancing the hydrological sciences and making informed policy decision, (ii) social aspects of the hydrological cycle for advancing our understanding of the dynamics between water and nature, and (iii) the social power of models and datasets for influencing policy processes. …”

MIRAGRODEP Model
Publicado 2011“…Key innovations Beyond the standard features of a global dynamic CGE, the MIRAGRODEP model includes several specific improvements: • Consistent aggregator for trade policies, as laid out in Laborde, Martin and van der Mensbrugghe (2017) • Sub-national land markets (agro-ecological zones or administrative districts) and endogenous land supply • Poverty analysis through either a top-down approach for global coverage (household modelling with a global dataset of more than 300,000 households) or a bottom-up approach (for a subset of countries). • Dual-Dual approach for formal/informal and rural/urban labor markets, following Stifel and Thorbecke (2003) . • Differentiated datasets on actual trade and farm policies and existing policy space (e.g. bound level at the WTO) for scenario design and endogenous policy responses • Macro nutrient (calories, fats, proteins) accounting system based on FAOSTAT food balance sheets and a global Input-Output matrix. • Sensitivity analysis framework based on Monte-Carlo simulations Research questions The MIRAGRODEP model was developed primarily to study trade policy scenarios and has been intensively used to assess bilateral and multilateral agreements and to support policymakers and civil society in different negotiations. …”

Molecular characterization of Ethiopian indigenous goat populations: Genetic diversity and structure, demographic dynamics and assessment of the kisspeptin gene polymorphism
Publicado 2016“…Interestingly, population phylogenetic analysis did not support the classification of Ethiopian goats based on their agro-ecological location, associated production system and phenotypic family as suggested previously, but differentiated the Kaffa goat from the rest of 13 Ethiopian goat populations. …”

Automated cropland mapping of continental Africa using Google Earth Engine cloud computing
Publicado 2017“…Based on these data, the study first produced accurate reference cropland layers or RCLs (cropland extent/areas, irrigation versus rainfed, cropping intensities, crop dominance, and croplands versus cropland fallows) for the year 2014 that provided an overall accuracy of around 90% for crop extent in different agro-ecological zones (AEZs). The RCLs for the year 2014 (RCL2014) were then used in the development of the ACMA algorithm to create ACMA-derived cropland layers for 2014 (ACL2014). …”
