Ebook "Environmental Geochemistry and Health with special reference to developing countries" presents a range of papers by geochemists, nutritionists, medical and veterinary researchers that illustrate the relevance of environmental geochemistry to the study of human and animal health problems in developing countries. People in these areas are very dependent on localized sources of water and food, and any geochemical anomaly (enrichment or depletion) within these local environments will have a marked influence on the health of people as well as of wildlife and domesticated animals.

Although astroviruses (AstV) have been detected in a variety of host species, there are only limited records of their occurrence in deer. One of the most important game species in Europe, due to its meat and antlers, is roe deer. Infected game animals can pose a threat to the health of other animals and of humans, so more attention needs to be focused on understanding the diversity of viruses in wildlife.

Globally, outbreaks of Avian Influenza Virus (AIV) in poultry continue to burden economies and endanger human, livestock and wildlife health. Wild waterbirds are often identified as possible sources for poultry infection. Therefore, it is important to understand the ecological and environmental factors that directly influence infection dynamics in wild birds, as these factors may thereby indirectly affect outbreaks in poultry.
