TL;DRAbstract

The group noted that forecasting is most difficult during recession periods when, in fact, it plays the most important part of an early warning system. Nevertheless, early warning is essential to the management of the desert locust. A main component of early warning is locust forecasts, which depend on the quality and timeliness of information. There is little chance for early warning to be of use if ground surveys do not occur on a regular basis and forecasts are not acted upon.KeywordsGeographical Information SystemEarly WarningEarly Warning SystemGround SurveyRecession PeriodThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
