Detecting the impact of temperature on transmission of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya using mechanistic models.

Detecting the impact of temperature on transmission of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya using mechanistic models.

Recent epidemics of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya have heightened the need to understand the seasonal and geographic range of transmission by Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus mosquitoes. We use mechanistic transmission models to derive predictions for how the probability and magnitude of transmissio...
