Mosquito behaviour of Solomon Island mosquitoes using Barrier Screens

Description of data archiving for analysis

A series of experiments using the barrier screen were conducted at Haleta village, Central Province and Jack Harbour village, Western Province in the Solomon Islands. This work commenced on 11/05/2016 and was completed on 20/07/2017. The data from the entire set of experiments has been archived into one database. Each experiment can be quickly identified using the “ProjectID” which runs from EJP1 to EJP10.
