Background Models for the spatial distribution of vector species are important tools in the
assessment of the risk of establishment and subsequent spread of vector-borne diseases …

Spatial connectivity plays an important role in mosquito-borne disease transmission.
Connectivity can arise for many reasons, including shared environments, vector ecology and …

A number of emerging vector-borne diseases have the potential to be transmitted in the UK
by native mosquitoes. Human infection by some of these diseases requires the presence of …

Background Landscape modifications, urbanization or changes of use of rural-agricultural
areas can create more favourable conditions for certain mosquito species and therefore …

We tested four machine learning methods for their performance in the classification of
mosquito species occurrence related to weather variables: support vector machine, random …

In Slovenia, two invasive mosquito species are present, Aedes albopictus (Skuse,
1895)(Diptera: Culicidae) and Aedes japonicus (Theobald, 1901)(Diptera: Culicidae). In this …

Species distribution modeling (SDM) has become an increasingly common approach to
explore questions about ecology, geography, outbreak risk, and global change as they …

Background: Mosquitoes are very important vectors of diseases to human. We aimed to
establish the first spatial database on the mosquitoes of Isfahan Province, central Iran, and …

Geographic information systems (GIS) are powerful computer mapping and analysis
systems for studying spatial patterns and processes; they are applicable to numerous …

Mosquito-borne infections are increasing in endemic areas and previously unaffected
regions. In 2020, the notification rate for Dengue was 0.5 cases per 100,000 population, and …
