Generalized additive mixed modelling of river discharge in the black Volta river
River discharge data offer a rich source of information for reservoir management and flood control, if modelling can separate out the effects of rainfall, land use, soil type, relief, and weather conditions. In this paper, we model river discharge…
Effects of weather and policy intervention on COVID-19 infection in Ghana
Even though laboratory and epidemiological studies have demonstrated the effects of ambient temperature on the transmission and survival of coronaviruses, not much has been done on the effects of weather on the spread of COVID-19. This study…

Malaria is considered endemic in over hundred countries across the globe. Many cases of malaria and deaths due to malaria occur in Sub‐Saharan Africa. The disease is of great public health concern since it affects people of all age groups more…
Zero‐Inflated Time Series Modelling of COVID‐19 Deaths in Ghana
Discrete count time series data with an excessive number of zeros have warranted the development of zero‐inflated time series models to incorporate the inflation of zeros and the overdispersion that comes with it. In this paper, we investigated the…
