From: Malaria epidemiology in Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea
Monthly confirmed malaria, entomologic inoculation rates and rainfall per month in the period 2006–2011. Legend: Confirmed malaria cases in the MI area. EIR = entomological inoculation rates in the MI area, calculated as the product of the sporozoite rate (SR) and the Human Biting Rate. Rainfall is an island-wide rainfall index based on the records averaged over 4 geographically-dispersed stations.
