Malaria as anthropo-ecosystem. Part III: Diversity of MAES.
Diversity being one of the main characteristics of Malaria Anthropo-Ecosystem (MAES) is reflected in time and space. Temporal diversity of MAES generally may be divided into two types--long time periods usually on a global scale, and various local fluctuations expressed as malaria periodicity. Geographical confinement of MAES is determined by interactions of various elements of the latter with biotic and abiotic components of the environment. The diversity of the MAES within climatic zones of South and South-East Asia is shown to be of many types of sub-systems depending, apart from climatic conditions, on types of human activity in those ecosystems.
