Modeling environmental surveillance of Dracunculus medinensis in aquatic habitats using a three-dimensional agent-based model
Jaewoon Jeong, Rebecca B. Garabed
This paper develops a 3D agent-based model to simulate Guinea worm larval dispersal and copepod infection dynamics, showing that detection is constrained by ecological factors like dispersal, copepod density, and pond size.
