  • Analysis of agro-climatic parameters and their influence on maize production in South Africa 
    Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Botai, Christina M.; Botai, Joel Ongego; Hassen, Abubeker; Darkey, Daniel; Tesfamariam, Eyob Habte; Adisa, Alex F.; Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Ncongwane, Katlego P. (Springer, 2018-11)
    This study analyzed the variability of the agro-climatic parameters that impact maize production across different seasons in South Africa. To achieve this, four agro-climatic variables (precipitation, potential evapotranspiration, ...
  • Application of artificial neural network for predicting maize production in South Africa 
    Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Botai, J.O. (Joel Ongego); Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Hassen, Abubeker; Botai, Christina M.; Darkey, Daniel; Tesfamariam, Eyob Habte (MDPI, 2019-02)
    The use of crop modeling as a decision tool by farmers and other decision-makers in the agricultural sector to improve production efficiency has been on the increase. In this study, artificial neural network (ANN) models ...
  • Climatic variables and malaria morbidity in Mutale local municipality, South Africa : a 19-year data analysis 
    Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Botai, Joel Ongego; Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Ncongwane, Katlego P.; Botai, Mihloti Christina; Adebayo-Ojo, Temitope Christina (MDPI Publishing, 2017-11-08)
    The north-eastern parts of South Africa, comprising the Limpopo Province, have recorded a sudden rise in the rate of malaria morbidity and mortality in the 2017 malaria season. The epidemiological profiles of malaria, ...
  • Environmental factors and population at risk of malaria in Nkomazi municipality, South Africa 
    Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Botai, Joel Ongego; Olwoch, Jane Mukarugwiza; Rautenbach, Cornelis Johannes de Wet; Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Taiwo, O.J.; Kalumba, Ahmed M. (Wiley, 2016-05)
    OBJECTIVE : Nkomazi local municipality of South Africa is a high-risk malaria region with an incidence rate of about 500 cases per 100 000. We examined the influence of environmental factors on population (age group) ...
  • Landsat satellite derived environmental metric for mapping mosquitoes breeding habitats in the Nkomazi municipality, Mpumalanga Province, South Africa 
    Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Olwoch, Jane Mukarugwiza; Botai, Joel Ongego; Rautenbach, Cornelis Johannes de Wet; Kalumba, Ahmed M.; Tsela, Philemon Lehlohonolo; Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Nsubuga, Francis Wasswa Nkugwa (Routledge, 2017)
    The advancement, availability and high level of accuracy of satellite data provide a unique opportunity to conduct environmental and epidemiological studies using remotely sensed measurements. In this study, information ...
  • Predicting malaria cases using remotely sensed environmental variables in Nkomazi, South Africa 
    Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Botai, Joel Ongego; Olwoch, Jane Mukarugwiza; Rautenbach, Cornelis Johannes de Wet; Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); De Jager, Christiaan; Botai, Mihloti Christina; Mabuza, Aaron (PAGEpress, 2019)
    There has been a conspicuous increase in malaria cases since 2016/2017 over the three malaria-endemic provinces of South Africa. This increase has been linked to climatic and environmental factors. In the absence of ...
  • Rainfall trends and malaria occurrences in Limpopo Province, South Africa 
    Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Ncongwane, Katlego P.; Abiodun, Gbenga J.; Makgoale, Thabo; Rautenbach, Hannes; Botai, Joel Ongego; Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Botai, Christina M. (MDPI Publishing, 2019-12-17)
    This contribution aims to investigate the influence of monthly total rainfall variations on malaria transmission in the Limpopo Province. For this purpose, monthly total rainfall was interpolated from daily rainfall data ...
  • Variability of satellite derived phenological parameters across maize producing areas of South Africa 
    Adisa, O.M. (Omolola); Botai, Joel Ongego; Hassen, Abubeker; Darkey, Daniel; Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo; Tesfamariam, Eyob Habte; Botai, Christina M.; Adisa, Abidemi T. (MDPI Publishing, 2018-08-27)
    Changes in phenology can be used as a proxy to elucidate the short and long term trends in climate change and variability. Such phenological changes are driven by weather and climate as well as environmental and ecological ...
