Climate-disease associations Sample Clauses

Climate-disease associations. Significant progress has been made on developing a simple climate risk model for RVF in West Africa, especially for Senegal and Mauritania (UNILIV, CSE and IPD). We found a similar climatic profile (dry spell followed by large precipitation) that was preceding the RVF outbreak that occurred in late 2012 in southern Mauritania. Results are being updated and a publication should be re-submitted soon (Aug-Sep 2013). We have continued to develop links within region climate disease relationships e.g. Xxxx (ICTP now IC3) with UNIMA and the Ministry of Health in Malawi on malaria. The relationship between climate variables and malaria morbidity in Limpopo has been assessed. Malaria data from the National Control Malaria Programme has been used and correlated with climate variables for Senegal (D5.3.c). All studies focusing on the link between climate and malaria in different urban settings of Ghana have now been published.
