Effects of temperature on Zika dynamics and control

C. N. Ngonghala, S. J. Ryan, B. Tesla, L. R. Demokovsky, E. A. Mordecai, C. C. Murdock, M. H. Bonds

This study uses a temperature-dependent dynamical model to analyze how temperature variability affects Zika virus transmission, finding that temperature is the dominant driver of epidemic dynamics.

Temperature drives Zika virus transmission: evidence from empirical and mathematical models

B. Tesla, L. R. Demakovsky, E. A. Mordecai, S. J. Ryan, M. H. Bonds, C. N. Ngonghala, M. A. Brindley, C. C. Murdock

The paper estimates the thermal performance of Zika virus in Aedes aegypti and updates a temperature-dependent model to show that Zika transmission is optimized at 29°C with a thermal range of 22.7–34.7°C.
