Climate change projections of West Nile virus infections in Europe: implications for blood safety practices
BACKGROUND West Nile virus (WNV) is transmitted by mosquitoes in both urban as well as in rural environments and can be pathogenic in birds, horses and humans. Extrinsic factors such as temperature and land use are determinants of WNV outbreaks in Europe, along with intrinsic factors of the vector and virus. METHODS With a multivariate model for WNV transmission we computed the probability of...
متن کاملClimate Change and Aedes Vectors: 21st Century Projections for Dengue Transmission in Europe
Warming temperatures may increase the geographic spread of vector-borne diseases into temperate areas. Although a tropical mosquito-borne viral disease, a dengue outbreak occurred in Madeira, Portugal, in 2012; the first in Europe since 1920s. This outbreak emphasizes the potential for dengue re-emergence in Europe given changing climates. We present estimates of dengue epidemic potential using...
متن کاملClimate change impacts in Europe
The PESETA research project integrates a set of high-resolution climate change projections and physicalmodels into an economic modelling framework to quantify the impacts of climate change on vulnerableaspects of Europe. Four market impact categories are considered (agriculture, river floods, coastal systems,and tourism) and one non-market category (human health). Considering the ma...
متن کاملConsistency of observed winter precipitation trends in northern Europe with regional climate change projections
Often it is claimed that the recent changes in northern European climate are at least partly anthropogenic even though a human influence has not yet been successfully detected. Hence we investigate whether the recent changes are consistent with regional climate change projections. Therefore, trends in winter (DJF) mean precipitation in northern Europe are compared to human induced changes as pr...
متن کاملClimate change in Central America and Mexico: regional climate model validation and climate change projections
Central America has high biodiversity, it harbors high-value ecosystems and it’s important to provide regional climate change information to assist in adaptation and mitigation work in the region. Here we study climate change projections for Central America and Mexico using a regional climate model. The model evaluation shows its success in simulating spatial and temporal variability of tempera...
