The Effect of Temperature on Anopheles Mosquito Population Dynamics and the Potential for Malaria Transmission
The parasites that cause malaria depend on Anopheles mosquitoes for transmission; because of this, mosquito population dynamics are a key determinant of malaria risk. Development and survival rates of both the Anopheles mosquitoes and the Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria depend on temperature...
