Background: Climate influences dengue ecology by affecting vector dynamics, agent
development, and mosquito/human interactions. Although these relationships are known …

The prevalence of diseases borne by mosquitoes, particularly in the genus Aedes, is rising
worldwide. This has been attributed, in part, to the dramatic rates of contemporary …

Most statistical and mechanistic models used to predict mosquito-borne disease
transmission incorporate climate drivers of disease transmission by utilizing environmental …

After more than a half century without recognized local dengue outbreaks in the continental
United States, there were recent outbreaks of autochthonous dengue in the southern parts of …

Abstract Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.) and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse) transmit
arboviruses that are increasing threats to human health in the Americas, particularly dengue …

Social, ecological, and climatic factors interact creating a heterogeneous matrix that
determines the spatiotemporal distribution of mosquitoes and human risks of exposure to the …

Invasion by mosquito vectors of disease may impact the distribution of resident mosquitoes,
resulting in novel patterns of vectors and concomitant risk for disease. One example of such …

Understanding mechanisms fostering coexistence between invasive and resident species is
important in predicting ecological, economic, or health impacts of invasive species. The non …

Background Aedes-borne disease risk is associated with contemporary urbanization
practices where city develo** structures function as a catalyst for creating mosquito …

The spread of Aedes albopictus (Skuse) eastward in the mid-1980s from its initial
establishment in Houston, TX, was associated with rapid declines and local disappearances …
