This editorial paper presents the papers published in a special issue devoted to the modeling and simulation of mutating virus pandemics in a globally connected world. The presentation is proposed in three parts. First, motivations and objectives are presented according to the idea that mathematical models should go beyond deterministic population dynamics by considering the multiscale, heterogeneous features of the complex system under consideration. Subsequently, the contents of the papers in this issue are presented referring to the aforementioned complexity features. Finally, a critical analysis of the overall contents of the issue is proposed, with the aim of providing a forward look to research perspectives.

Patterns Of Distribution

A number of biological parameters relevant to the population dynamics of Paranemonia vouliagmeniensis are discussed. The abiotic factors of the lagoon's waters are stable throughout the year. Paranemonia vouliagmeniensis populations follow different patterns of distribution (aggregated or random) in relation to human influence, and can thus become a reliable bioindicator for the lagoon.

Abstract Gabbasov, M. B., Jaichibekov, N. Zh., and Lebedev, D. V. 2008. A mathematical model of biological resource dynamics, using Caspian/Ural sturgeon as a case study. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 103–110. Some of the general principles involved in constructing mathematical models of biological resource dynamics are presented along with some of the requirements of such models for them to have value in terms of management application. A case study of sturgeon population dynamics in the Caspian Basin, using physical and biological parameters, is used to show theoretically how such a model can be developed and applied. The results of the case study are presented in graphic form, and the influence of different processes on the outcome of the calculation is discussed.

Epidemiological Parameters

SUMMARYAn evaluation has been made of the biological and epidemiological parameters that determine the basic reproductive rates of Taenia hydatigena and T. ovis. These host-parasite systems are characterized by (i) no overcrowding in either host; (ii) no parasite-induced mortality of either host; (iii) no density-dependent constraint in the definitive host, but a strong, rapidly mobilized, short-acting immunity in the intermediate host and (iv) egg production which, in the natural environment, is high enough to prevent superinfection. It is considered that tapeworms with these characteristics are more stable to fluctuations in environmental conditions and to control measures such as dog dosing, than species which have a low egg production and infectivity such as Echinococcus granulosus. Reciprocal immunity exists between T. hydatigena and T. ovis in sheep. Exposure to T. hydatigena suppresses infection by T. ovis, but not by E. granulosus. This has important epidemiological consequences where these parasites co-exist.
