Relevant microclimate for determining the development rate of malaria mosquitoes and possible implications of climate change
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The relationship between mosquito development and temperature is one of the keys to understanding the current and future dynamics and distribution of vector-borne diseases such as malaria. Many process-based models use mean air tempe...
