Modelling the impact of MAUP on environmental drivers for Schistosoma japonicum prevalence

2020-02-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) arises when the support size of a spatial variable affects the relationship between prevalence and environmental risk factors. Its effect on schistosomiasis modelling studies could lead to unreliable parameter estimates. The present research aims to quantify MAUP effects on environmental drivers of Schistosoma japonicum infection by (i) bringing all co...
