Predicting the spread of COVID-19 through Marine Ecological Niche Models

COVID-19 Ecological Niche Modelling MaxEnt Maximum Entropy Models Epidemiology

Researchers from ISTI-CNR (Italy) used marine models, designed to monitor species habitats and invasions, to identify the countries with the highest risk of COVID-19 spread due to climatic and human factors. The model correctly identified most locations where large outbreaks were recorded, independent of population density and dynamics, and is a valuable source of information for smaller-scale population models.
