A systematic review investigating emerging trends between Extreme Weather Events (EWEs) and infectious disease outbreaks in South Africa

Natalie Dickinson, Llinos Haf Spencer, Caroline Miller, Nisha Nadesan-Reddy et autres

Introduction: Extreme weather events (EWEs) are increasing in frequency and intensity due to climate change, exacerbating health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations. Infectious diseases are climate-sensitive, yet microbial dynamics during and after EWEs remain poorly understood. This systematic review examines if there …

Enhancing land cover classification in the heterogeneous landscape by integrating auxiliary data with Sentinel-2 imagery using the random forest algorithm

Irvin D. Shandu, Sifiso Xulu, Michael T. Gebreslasie

Effective and accurate land use and land cover classification (LULC-C) is an indispensable exercise for various environmental management objectives, including past and future land-use dynamics, flood and runoff modelling. However, LULC-C is subject to several limitations, such as labour-intensive derivation of a …
