摘要

Climate plays a crucial role in shaping dengue virus (DENV) transmission dynamics by influencing directly the physical and behavioural traits of mosquito individuals and viral replication. This chapter describes and evidences the intricate relationships between climate variables, mosquito traits and DENV transmission, highlighting the importance of understanding such connections in the context of a growing DENV burden and a global environmental change.
