“…We found that overall population-weighted average LFS PM(2.5) and ozone concentrations were 2.5 µg m(−3) (6.1% of all-source PM(2.5)) and 3.2 µg m(−3) (3.6% of all-source ozone), respectively, in 2010–2019, with a slight increase for PM(2.5), but not for ozone, compared with 2000–2009. Central Africa, Southeast Asia, South America and Siberia experienced the highest LFS PM(2.5) and ozone concentrations. …”

To elucidate the role that ecology and geography play in speciation, we carried out a countrywide analysis of An. gambiae M and S habitat requirements, and that of their chromosomal variants, across Burkina Faso. …”

Phylogenetic analysis and statistical neutrality tests suggested rapid HBV/E population expansion. …”
