Can water-level management reduce malaria mosquito abundance around large dams in sub-Saharan Africa?
Water level management has been suggested as a potential tool to reduce malaria around large reservoirs. However, no field-based test has been conducted to assess the effect of water level management on mosquito larval abundance in African settings. The objective of the present study is to evaluate...
