Development of a mathematical model to explain malaria incidence linked to climatic parameters. Studying the linkages between entomological and climatological variables through field and laboratory work. Creation of a Geographical Information System for Malaria in Colombia (SIGMA). Study Sites: Endemic-epidemic regions for malaria in the lowlands of Colombia: Nuqui (northwestern Colombia). El Bagre (Pacific Coast).

Findings: Temperature strongly affects the life cycle of An. albimanus, the main malaria vector. Modelling efforts confirm the importance of temperature in explaining malaria incidence. Colombia
