OverviewAI-generated summary
Cassandra H Steele studies insect vectors, with a focus on mosquitoes and biting midges (Ceratopogonidae). Her research investigates factors influencing insect abundance, diversity, and distribution across different habitats, including cattle pastures and woodlands. Steele has examined mosquito attraction to sound and the efficacy of various surveillance traps in urban and suburban environments. Her work also includes assessing the susceptibility of mosquito species to toxic sugar baits and understanding the distribution and medical importance of specific biting midge species in the United States in relation to emerging viruses. She has published research on the Culicoides species found in Arkansas, comparing their diversity across various ecoregions and habitats. Steele has an h-index of 3 with 25 total citations across 8 publications. She collaborates with Emily G McDermott at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville on several shared publications.
