High Spatial Resolution Ensemble Species Distribution Modeling of <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i>, Vector of Chagas Disease, in Western Venezuela. [PDF]
GeohealthAbstract Rhodnius prolixus is the most common and abundant kissing bug found in Royal and other native palms from western Venezuela. R. prolixus is a dominant vector of Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease. Here we use species distribution models (SDMs) to estimate habitat suitability for R. prolixus.

Lithology classification of igneous rocks using C-band and L-band dual-polarization SAR data
Open Geosciences, 2023 Distinguishing different kinds of igneous rocks is difficult because of their subtle differences. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is sensitive to rock surface morphology, which can help a lot in classification. Dual-pol SAR data have the advantages of low
