Urban malaria risk in Surat, India: climate and socioeconomic factors at play
Surat, northwest India, faces an escalating risk of urban malaria fueled by A. stephensi breeding in artificial containers. The study analyzes the impact of climate and socioeconomic factors on malaria cases in the city. Urban malaria exhibits stationary spatial variation, with high and low yearly case locations. The model integrating temperature, humidity, and population density-related factors is the most accurate. The study lays the groundwork for a climate-driven early warning system and emphasizes the need for targeted interventions in urban areas where water storage serves as breeding grounds for malaria vectors.
