Land surface temperature acts directly both on the breeding cycle of mosquito as well as the development of the Plasmodium parasite. Thus, surface temperature is thought to be directly related to increased risk for malaria. Source: Processed by Dr. D. Ghent, University of Leicester, UK Prevalence of malaria in West Africa. Numerical models analyse malaria data with environmental factors such as climate, altitude, vegetation cover, agro-ecological zones which are also derived from satellite maps. Source: MARA ARMA

Every day, its powerful computing systems assimilate in near real-time over 12 millions of observation data from about 60 different satellites and from various ground networks. - sea-surface temperature over the Atlantic: blue areas - coldest & red - warmest - accuracy of a few tenths of a degree.
