[ECOLOG-L] Ecosystem health related to human health

2010-03-23 Thread Andy Cole

Hi,

I've been a bit frustrated trying to find literature on the effects of 
changes in ecosystems over time as they relate to changes in human 
health over time. So, for example, changes in IBI's over time, or 
changes in landscape metrics that then relate to (for example) increased 
stress or other health issues. Seems like a basic question but I'm 
stymied as to where to look - it's a bit out of my normal range of 
inquiry. I'd be very grateful if someone could point me in the right 
direction.


Thanks.

Andy Cole

The Wildlife Trust (www.wildlifetrust.org) has a lot of stuff on this, 
including a book:

A. Alonso Aguirre, Richard S. Ostfeld, Gary M. Tabor, Carol House, Mary C. 
Pearl. 2002. 
Conservation Medicine: Ecological Health in Practice. OUP.

There is also a journal: http://www.ecohealth.net/
