Project Detail

Project: Development of Empirical Models of Myxobolus cerebralis to Predict Risks for Populations of Fish Across River Drainages

Primary Investigator: Christine Moffitt
Project Summary: The investigators explored the efficacy of using landscape level tools in GIS to develop a model to predict the intensity of infection of M.cerebralis in fish and T. tubifex worm populations. They developed models to explain variation in infection using empirical data gathered from several locations, and refined these by testing within the Pahsimeroi River basin during the summer of 2003. The final analysis is not completed.
