| Water and climate. The publication addresses climate change and variability for an intended audience of water managers. The chapter for which I was lead author summarises the relevant climate information, and therefore may be of interest to a wider audience. |

| Regional warming and malaria resurgence. A refutation of a prior
Nature paper that inappropriately used a climate data-set that I maintain, and that
consequently drew false deductions about the existence of climate change in East Africa, and
the relationship between malaria and climate. |
