    • Ecological niche modelling of Rift Valley fever virus vectors in Baringo, Kenya 

      Ochieng, Alfred O.; Nanyingi, Mark; Kipruto, Edwin; Ondiba, Isabella M.; Amimo, Fred A.; Oludhe, Christopher; Olago, Daniel O.; Nyamongo, Isaac K.; Estambale, Benson B. (Taylor and Francis Online, 2017)
      Background: Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a vector-borne zoonotic disease that has an impact on human health and animal productivity. Here, we explore the use of vector presence modelling to predict the distribution of RVF ...

    • Perennial transmission of malaria in the low altitude areas of Baringo County, Kenya 

      Omondi, Collince J.; Onguru, Daniel; Kamau, Lucy; Nanyingi, Mark; Ong’amo, George; Estambale, Benson B. (BMC, 2017)
      Background: Malaria causes the greatest public health burden in sub-Saharan Africa where high mortality occurs mainly in children under 5 years of age. Traditionally, malaria has been reported mainly in the lowlands endemic ...

    • Sensitivity of vegetation to climate variability and its implications for malaria risk in Baringo, Kenya 

      Amadi, Jacinter A.; Olago, Daniel O.; Ong’amo, George O.; Oriaso, Silas O.; Nanyingi, Mark; Nyamongo, Isaac K.; Estambale, Benson B. (PLOS ONE, 2018-07-05)
      The global increase in vector borne diseases has been linked to climate change. Seasonal vegetation changes are known to influence disease vector population. However, the relationship is more theoretical than quantitatively ...
