In our study we did not address the impact of predicted climate change on malaria incidence because a complete global assessment is reported elsewhere. Regarding the climate surfaces we used, the data set has superior spatial resolution compared with other data sets of similar temporal extent,, and has been used to quantify climate change across Africa at 0.5 × 0.5° spatial resolution (although the resulting maps are smoothed to emphasize regional changes). It is inconsistent to assert that these same data are insufficient to demonstrate a lack of climate change.
