Download or read book Entomological Field Techniques for Malaria Control: Learner's guide written by World Health Organization and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical training module on entomological field techniques for malaria control presented in two separately bound parts. The first, addressed to learners, provides step-by-step instructions in the field, and work needed to secure comprehensive information about the mosquito population in a given area. Information is presented in a series of 13 illustrated learning units, moving from the simplest collecting techniques that can be practiced in the laboratory to more sophisticated procedures that must be undertaken in the field. Techniques covered include hand collection methods, indoor collection after pyrethrin spraying, direct catches of mosquitoes from animal and human bait, and collection of larvae and pupae from breeding sites. Other units help readers learn how to identify species at all stages of the life cycle, keep accurate records, and preserve and transport specimens under strictly controlled conditions. The need to gain the cooperation of the community is also thoroughly explained. The second part, addressed to tutors, offers practical advice on the organization and running of training courses. Like the first part, the Tutor's Guide is divided into a series of learning units with clearly specified learning objectives. Information is provided on the equipment needed for teaching a particular topic, on demonstrating a particular technique, and on any support services that may be required. Each unit offers guidance on appropriate teaching methods with more detailed suggestions supplied in an annex. The book also provides advice on the assessment of learners and on how to give them feedback on their progress.

Download or read book Identification and Geographical Distribution of the Mosquitos of North America, North of Mexico written by Richard F. Darsie and published by Gainesville : University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greatly anticipated and sorely needed, this book updates the successful guide to North American mosquitoes published by the American Mosquito Control Association in 1981. It includes 12 new species that have since been added to the North American mosquito fauna, revised distribution maps of all species, and revised and completely illustrated identification keys for the adult females and fourth instar larvae of all 174 species and subspecies known to occur in North America, north of Mexico. In chapters on adult and larval morphology, the coauthors--both world-renowned in their field of taxonomy--discuss the anatomical structures mentioned in the keys and pictured on full-page plates. They provide separate generic keys for adult females and larvae and keys to the species of each genus. In addition, they show the geographical distribution of each taxon in a series of maps and include a synopsis of the occurrence of species in the states and provinces of the United States and Canada. This book's usefulness to mosquito control programs cannot be overestimated. For example, it deals with 9 exotic species that have been introduced and today successfully thrive in North America. Several are increasing their range and this book will help identify these species when they first invade an area. Because of the occurrence of mosquito-borne diseases and the widespread distribution of mosquitoes as pests to humans, professionals must know how to identify them. With its wealth of up-to-date information, this book is the only one of its kind available for specialists working on mosquito-borne diseases and in mosquito control units and for both introductory and advanced students who study entomology.

Download or read book Freshwater Microbiology written by Sincere Humphrey and published by Scientific e-Resources. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the diversity, interactions and activities of microbes within freshwater environments. These form an important part of the biosphere, which also includes oceans, terrestrial environments and the earth's atmosphere. Freshwater environments are considered to include all those sites where freshwater occurs as the main external medium, either in the liquid or frozen state. Water microorganisms are capable of flourishing in all water habitants, from several kilometers below the seafloor to the first millimeter of a shallow trench created by rainwater and into acidic lakes. Three major domains compose water microorganisms-Eukaryota, Archaea and Bacteria - as well as viruses. Their omnipresence impacts the entire biosphere as they are the main producers of energy and carbon flow to other organisms. Some of the microbes decompose organic matter and thus they recycle nutrients in complex manner involved in various geochemical cycles as the nitrogen, the phosphorus and the carbon cycle. Water microbiology is concerned with the microorganisms that live in water, or can be transported from one habitat to another by water. Water can support the growth of many types of microorganisms. This can be advantageous. For example, the chemical activities of certain strains of yeasts provide us with beer and bread. As well, the growth of some bacteria in contaminated water can help digest the poisons from the water. This book will be useful to researchers, teachers and students of microbiology, botany, zoology and agriculture.

Download or read book Current Concepts in Forensic Entomology written by Jens Amendt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forensic Entomology deals with the use of insects and other arthropods in medico legal investigations. We are sure that many people know this or a similar definition, maybe even already read a scientific or popular book dealing with this topic. So, do we really need another book on Forensic Entomology? The answer is 13, 29, 31, 38, and 61. These are not some golden bingo numbers, but an excerpt of the increasing amount of annual publications in the current decade dealing with Forensic Entomology. Comparing them with 89 articles which were published d- ing the 1990s it illustrates the growing interest in this very special intersection of Forensic Science and Entomology and clearly underlines the statement: Yes, we need this book because Forensic Entomology is on the move with so many new things happening every year. One of the most attractive features of Forensic Entomology is that it is multid- ciplinary. There is almost no branch in natural science which cannot find its field of activity here. The chapters included in this book highlight this variety of researches and would like to give the impetus for future work, improving the dev- opment of Forensic Entomology, which is clearly needed by the scientific com- nity. On its way to the courtrooms of the world this discipline needs a sound and serious scientific background to receive the acceptance it deserves.
