Identifying malaria vector breeding habitats with remote sensing data and terrain-based landscape indices in Zambia
BACKGROUND: Malaria, caused by the parasite Plasmodium falciparum, is a significant source of morbidity and mortality in southern Zambia. In the Mapanza Chiefdom, where transmission is seasonal, Anopheles arabiensis is the dominant malaria vector. The ability to predict larval habitats can help focu...
