A diffusion model to predict spatial and temporal population dynamics of Rift valley fever vectors in Northern Senegal [PDF]
, 2010 We have developed an explicit spatial and temporal model to predict the population dynamics and dispersal of the two main mosquito vector species (Aedes vexans and Culex poicilipes) involved in Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) transmission in Senegal ...
