Longitudinal Study of the Species Composition and Spatio-Temporal Abundance ofAnophelesLarvae in a Malaria Risk Area in Argentina

Analysis of the spatial distribution of scientific publications regarding vector-borne diseases related to climate variability in South America

“…As a consequence, most data belong to specific places, including neighborhoods of those municipalities or non-urban areas (e.g., Monte Roraima or the Amazon region in Brazil). The main topics of these works are outbreaks associated with climate variables (e.g., Vanasco et al, 20 0 0;Simões Barbosa et al, 20 01;Mateus and Carrasquilla, 2011;Eastin et al, 2014 ), associations between vectors, diseases and climate variables (e.g., Monteiro Michalsky et al, 2009;Girod et al 2011;, population studies of vectors transmitting dis- eases (e.g., Lorenzo et al, 20 0 0;Steina et al, 20 05;Dantur Juri et al, 2014 ;Moreno et al, 2015 ) and relationship between disease cases and climate or geographic variables ( Sáez-Sáez et al, 2007;Basurko et al, 2011;Ruiz-López et al, 2016 ). Works that span major regions are less frequent.…”
