Climate epidemiology research. Team of climate epidemiologists carrying out research into the evolution of tick populations responsible for many diseases. They are using sheets (on ground) to catch ticks in a grassy environment. 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 (background).
