Climatic suitability for the transmission of malaria in Europe (1950-2020), Apr 2023

This metadata refer to the dataset presenting the annual change in the number of months suitable for the transmission of the Plasmodium vivax parasite causing malaria. The suitable months are those with precipitation above 80 mm, average temperature between 14.5°C and 33°C, and relative humidity above 60%, in land types highly suitable for Anopheles mosquitoes.

Statement

This indicator uses a threshold-based model to capture the number of months in which the accumulated precipitation, relative humidity, and temperature, combined with land cover type, make environmental conditions suitable for the transmission of Plasmodium vivax, the main malaria pathogen in Europe.
