Predictive thresholds for plague in Kazakhstan.

• Stephen Davis, Mike Begon, +6 authors Herwig Leirs
• Science
• 2004

In Kazakhstan and elsewhere in central Asia, the bacterium Yersinia pestis circulates in natural populations of gerbils, which are the source of human cases of bubonic plague. Our analysis of field… (More)

Epizootiologic Parameters for Plague in Kazakhstan

• Michael E. Begon, Nikolay L. Klassovskiy, Vladimir Ageyev, Bakhtiar Suleimenov, Bakhyt Atshabar, Malcolm J Bennett
• Emerging infectious diseases
• 2006

Reliable estimates are lacking of key epizootiologic parameters for plague caused by Yersinia pestis infection in its natural reservoirs. We report results of a 3-year longitudinal study of plague… (More)

Plague dynamics are driven by climate variation.

• Nils Chr. Stenseth, Noelle I. Samia, +10 authors Kung-Sik Chan
• Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
• 2006

The bacterium Yersinia pestis causes bubonic plague. In Central Asia, where human plague is still reported regularly, the bacterium is common in natural populations of great gerbils. By using field… (More)

Plague metapopulation dynamics in a natural reservoir: the burrow system as the unit of study.

• S. Davis, Nikolay L. Klassovskiy, +6 authors Mike Begon
• Epidemiology and infection
• 2007

The ecology of plague (Yersinia pestis infection) in its ancient foci in Central Asia remains poorly understood. We present field data from two sites in Kazakhstan where the great gerbil (Rhombomys… (More)

Emergence, spread, persistence and fade-out of sylvatic plague in Kazakhstan.

• Lise Heier, Geir Storvik, +4 authors Nils Chr. Stenseth
• Proceedings. Biological sciences
• 2011

Predicting the dynamics of zoonoses in wildlife is important not only for prevention of transmission to humans, but also for improving the general understanding of epidemiological processes. A large… (More)

Plague epizootic cycles in Central Asia

• Jonas Reijniers, Mike Begon, Vladimir Ageyev, Herwig Leirs
• Biology letters
• 2014

Infection thresholds, widely used in disease epidemiology, may operate on host abundance and, if present, on vector abundance. For wildlife populations, host and vector abundances often vary greatly… (More)

Statistical analysis of the dynamics of antibody loss to a disease-causing agent: plague in natural populations of great gerbils as an example.

• Siyun Park, Kung-Sik Chan, +6 authors Nils Chr. Stenseth
• Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
• 2007

We propose a new stochastic framework for analysing the dynamics of the immunity response of wildlife hosts against a disease-causing agent. Our study is motivated by the need to analyse the… (More)

Modelling Immunity Against Infectious Plague Bacteria in Great Gerbils in Kazakhstan: a Continuous-time Markov Chain Approach

Authoritarianism in the Former Soviet Union

• Sam G. McFarland, Vladimir Ageyev, Marina A. Abalakina-Paap
• 1992

Two studies examined the relevance of the authoritarian personality in the Soviet Union. In a 1991 Moscow quota sample, authoritarianism strongly predicted support for reactionary leaders and… (More)
