Deforestation for oil palm increases microclimate suitability for the development of the disease vector Aedes albopictus
Abstract A major trade-off of land-use change is the potential for increased risk of infectious diseases, a.o. through impacting disease vector life-cycles. Evaluating the public health implications of land-use conversions requires spatially detailed modelling linking land-use to vector ecology. Her...
