Description
Ticks and climate epidemiology research. Magnifying glass being used to observe ticks that have been gathered by climate epidemiologists carrying out research into the evolution of tick populations responsible for many diseases. The ticks were caught using a sheet dragged over the ground. Changes in animal and plant populations, and related disease patterns, are one aspect of the consequences of climate change due to global warming. As well as ticks, populations of fleas and mosquitoes are also affected by climate change. This study is being led by French researcher Karine Chalvet-Monfray.
