Tree canopy cover affects basal resources and nutrient profiles of Aedes and Culex larvae in cemetery vases in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
Rogers R, Polito M, de Jesus Crespo R
J Med Entomol . 2023 Mar; 60(3):500-510. PMID: 36920104
Cemetery vases are important habitat for vector mosquito production, yet there is limited understanding on their food web dynamics and how they vary across environmental gradients. Tree cover is one...

Habitat Segregation Patterns of Container Breeding Mosquitos: The Role of Urban Heat Islands, Vegetation Cover, and Income Disparity in Cemeteries of New Orleans
de Jesus Crespo R, Rogers R
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2022 Jan; 19(1). PMID: 35010505
and are important pathogen-carrying vectors that broadly exhibit similar habitat suitability, but that differ at fine spatial scales in terms of competitive advantage and tolerance to urban driven environmental parameters....

Mosquito Vector Production across Socio-Economic Divides in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
de Jesus Crespo R, Harrison M, Rogers R, Vaeth R
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2021 Feb; 18(4). PMID: 33546458
We investigated the role of socio-economic factors in the proliferation of mosquito vectors in two adjacent but socio-economically contrasting neighborhoods in Baton Rouge, LA, USA. We surveyed mosquito larvae habitat,...

Linking Water Quality to Aedes aegypti and Zika in Flood-Prone Neighborhoods
Yee S, Yee D, de Jesus Crespo R, Oczkowski A, Bai F, Friedman S
Ecohealth . 2019 Apr; 16(2):191-209. PMID: 30945160
The ability of ecosystems to regulate water quality and flood events has been linked to health outcomes, including mosquito-borne illnesses. In the San Juan Bay Estuary watershed of Puerto Rico,...

Eco-Health linkages: assessing the role of ecosystem goods and services on human health using causal criteria analysis
de Jesus Crespo R, Fulford R
Int J Public Health . 2017 Aug; 63(1):81-92. PMID: 28765989
Objectives: In the last decade, we saw an upsurge of studies evaluating the role of ecosystem goods and services (EGS) on human health (Eco-Health). Most of this work consists of...
