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

Climate change is impacting coral reefs now. Recent pan-tropical bleaching events driven
by unprecedented global heat waves have shifted the playing field for coral reef …

Previous studies on the influence of weather on Aedes aegypti dynamics in Puerto Rico
suggested that rainfall was a significant driver of immature mosquito populations and …

Abstract The mosquito Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.), which occurs widely in the subtropics
and tropics, is the primary urban vector of dengue and yellow fever viruses, and an important …

Introdução: A dengue configura-se nas últimas décadas como importante causa de
morbidade e mortalidade no Brasil e no mundo atingindo as zonas tropicais e subtropicais …

Background Aedes aegypti is an important vector for arboviroses and widely distributed
throughout the world. Climatic factors can influence vector population dynamics and …

Local climate conditions play a major role in the biology of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, the
main vector responsible for transmitting dengue, zika, chikungunya and yellow fever in …

In this work, we use a mathematical model for dengue transmission with the aim of analysing
and comparing two dengue epidemics that occurred in Salvador, Brazil, in 1995–1996 and …

Background Transmission dynamics, vectorial capacity, and co-infections have substantial
impacts on vector-borne diseases (VBDs) affecting urban and suburban populations …

Background Limited success has been achieved using traditional vector control methods to
prevent the transmission of dengue viruses. Integrated control programs incorporating …
