Satellites map cholera outbreaks
<!-- S BO --> <!-- S IIMA --> <table width="226" align="right" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody><tr><td>
Cholera epidemics can follow flooding
</td></tr> </tbody></table> <!-- E IIMA --> <!-- S SF -->Researchers have developed a system for predicting cholera outbreaks using satellite monitoring of marine environments.
They show cholera outbreaks follow seasonal increases in sea temperature.
This could provide an early warning system for India and Bangladesh where cholera epidemics occur regularly.
Tiny animals which increase in number with sea temperature rise bring the cholera pathogen into the drinking water supply.
