Climate Change, Vectors, and Public Health: Predicting Future Disease Risks in the Federal State Tyrol

Year: 2025

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Population dynamics of vectors are strongly influenced by temperature and precipitation. We hypothesize that global warming and changes in precipitation patterns may lead to an increase in vector abundance and subsequent to a higher risk of specific vector borne disease cases in Austria.
