Modeling in Ecology and Epidemiology

Nature is filled with biotic organisms (bacteria, insects, plants, animals, etc.) and B-biotic elements of the environment (air, soil, and water). The life cycle of biotic elements is entirely dependent on the abiotic elements. Pathogens like viruses, bacteria, or other infectious agents can cause diseases in living creatures. The pathogens are capable of causing infectious disease directly, or they can also spread through the other multiple species (known as the Vector). Zoonosis is an infectious disease that has jumped from non-human animals to humans. Zoonotic pathogens may be bacterial, viral, or parasitic, involve unconventional agents, and can spread to humans through direct contact with food, water, or the environment. Currently, highly infectious human populations of diseases include HIV, SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19), H1N1 flu (swine flu), Dengue (Vector-borne), and so forth. Another essential feature is the pollutant of the environment (like the pesticide used for agricultural purposes and oil in the seawater) that spread among the animals through the food. Therefore, it is crucial to study infectious disease dynamics in ecological systems and human populations.
