Malaria is a long-standing public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa, whereas arthropod-
borne viruses (arboviruses) such as dengue and chikungunya cause an under-recognised …

Mosquito‐borne diseases cause a major burden of disease worldwide. The vital rates of
these ectothermic vectors and parasites respond strongly and nonlinearly to temperature …

Forecasting the impacts of climate change on Aedes-borne viruses—especially dengue,
chikungunya, and Zika—is a key component of public health preparedness. We apply an …

Vector-borne diseases are transmitted by haematophagous arthropods (for example,
mosquitoes, ticks and sandflies) to humans and wild and domestic animals, with the largest …

The temperature-dependence of many important mosquito-borne diseases has never been
quantified. These relationships are critical for understanding current distributions and …

Vector‐borne diseases cause significant financial and human loss, with billions of dollars
spent on control. Arthropod vectors experience a complex suite of environmental factors that …

Alphaviruses cause severe human illnesses including persistent arthritis and fatal
encephalitis. As alphavirus entry into target cells is the first step in infection, intensive …

The potential for adaptive evolution to enable species persistence under a changing climate
is one of the most important questions for understanding impacts of future climate change …

Climate change is expected to have complex effects on infectious diseases, causing some to
increase, others to decrease, and many to shift their distributions. There have been several …

Human activity and land‐use change are dramatically altering the sizes, geographical
distributions and functioning of biological populations worldwide, with tremendous …
