Datasets used to model the temporal patterns of cholera outbreaks in Bangladesh. a) Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) satellite image showing the mouth of the Ganges River and the Bay of Bengal. Vegetation is shown in shades of red and water in shades of blue. The spatial resolution of these data is 1.1 km. b) Sea surface temperature data, derived from AVHRR thermal bands. Temperatures range from low (purple) to high (red). c) Sea surface height data, derived from TOPEX/Poseidon satellite data. The spatial resolution of these data is 1 degree. d) Image derived from the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor
(SeaWiFS) showing chlorophyll concentration, ranging from low (blue) to high (red). These satellite data have a
nominal spatial resolution of 1.1 km. |
