Systematic errors in temperature estimates from MODIS data covering the western Palearctic and their impact on a parasite development model

The modelling of habitat suitability for parasites is a growing area of research due to its association with climate change and ensuing shifts in the distribution of infectious diseases. Such models depend on remote sensing data and require accurate, high-resolution temperature measurements. The tem...
