Item Data Sharing and Ownership Agreement for the Research Project “Building a One Health Research Collaboration between UMN and Grand Portage Indian Reservation” between the Grand Portage Band and the Regents of the University of Minnesota, on behalf of its College of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Veterinary Population Medicine(2015) Moore, Seth A; Wolf, Tiffany M; Travis, Dominic AItem Data, Model Documentation, and Output Supporting "Optimizing syndromic health surveillance in free ranging great apes: the case of Gombe National Park"(2018-05-24) Wolf, Tiffany, M; Wang, Wenchun, A; Lonsdorf, Elizabeth V; Gillespie, Thomas; Pusey, Anne; Gilby, Ian; Travis, Dominic A; Singer, Randall; wolfx305@umn.edu; Wolf, Tiffany MSyndromic surveillance is an incipient approach to early wildlife disease detection. Consequently, systematic assessments are needed for methodology validation in wildlife populations. We evaluated the sensitivity of a syndromic surveillance protocol for respiratory disease detection among chimpanzees in Gombe National Park, Tanzania. Empirical health, behavioral and demographic data were integrated with an agent-based, network model to simulate disease transmission and surveillance. Surveillance sensitivity was estimated as 66% (95% Confidence Interval: 63.1, 68.8%) and 59.5% (95% Confidence Interval: 56.5%, 62.4%) for two monitoring methods (weekly count and prevalence thresholds, respectively), but differences among calendar quarters in outbreak size and surveillance sensitivity suggest seasonal effects. We determined that a threshold weekly detection of ≥2 chimpanzees with clinical respiratory disease leading to outbreak response protocols (enhanced observation and biological sampling) is an optimal algorithm for outbreak detection in this population. Synthesis and applications: This is the first quantitative assessment of syndromic surveillance in wildlife, providing a model approach addressing disease emergence. Coupling syndromic surveillance with targeted diagnostic sampling in the midst of suspected outbreaks will provide a powerful system for detecting disease transmission and understanding population impacts.Item Supporting data for "A chemical prioritization process: Applications to contaminants of emerging concern in freshwater ecosystems (Phase 1)"(2022-09-08) Deere, Jessica R; Streets, Summer; Jankowski, Mark D; Ferrey, Mark; Chenaux-Ibrahim, Yvette; Convertino, Matteo; Isaac, E.J.; Phelps, Nicholas B. D.; Primus, Alexander; Servadio, Joseph L; Singer, Randall S; Travis, Dominic A; Moore, Seth; Wolf, Tiffany M; deere007@umn.edu; Deere, Jessica RThese data describe contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) detected in subsistence fish species and freshwater ecosystems on the Grand Portage Indian Reservation and adjacent 1854 Ceded Territory in Northeastern Minnesota, USA. They also contain chemical-specific information, including acute toxicity, endocrine activity, physicochemical properties, and frequency of occurrence data used to prioritize detected CECs based on their potential environmental hazard.Item Supporting data for “Anthropogenic factors associated with contaminants of emerging concern detected in inland Minnesota lakes (Phase II)”(2022-07-28) Servadio, Joseph L; Deere, Jessica R; Jankowski, Mark D; Ferrey, Mark; Isaac, EJ; Cheneaux-Ibrahim, Yvette; Primus, Alexander; Convertino, Matteo; Phelps, Nicholas BD; Streets, Summer; Travis, Dominic A; Moore, Seth; Wolf, Tiffany M; wolfx305@umn.edu; Wolf, Tiffany M
