The AFHSC-GEIS and NASA Predictive Surveillance Advisory, August 2009. Predictive surveillance advisories are sent to AFHSC-GEIS Predictive Surveillance program partners, DoD public health authorities, and other national and international organizations. The advisories also are publicly shared on an open-access website (ftp://rvf:geis@pengimms.gsfc.nasa.gov) when eco-climatic events and trends suggest that disease outbreaks may arise in the coming several months. The August 2009 advisory was not geographically limited because the expected El Ni帽o conditions were expected to have global impact.
