Cholera has been a human scourge since the early 1800s and remains global public health challenge, caused by toxigenic strains of bacterium Vibrio cholerae. In its aquatic reservoirs, V. cholerae shown to live in association with various arthropod hosts, including chironomids, diverse insect family commonly found wet semiwet habitats. The between chironomids may shield from environmental stressors amplify dissemination. However, interaction dynamics remain largely unknown. this study, we...
Physical multi-touch spherical displays can provide a direct, hands-on, embodied interaction experience with global visualization data like ocean temperatures and currents. However, current commercially available may be cost-prohibitive for educational institutions and/or non-profits to acquire. Virtual globe-based visualizations Google Earth are potential alternative, but it is not clear how well the interactive affordances of physical spheres transfer virtual. We conducted within-subjects...
