Abstract

Climatic factors affect the spread of dengue fever by influencing the development and reproduction of vector mosquito species, as well as amplification of viral pathogen in vectors. Evaluating the impact of climatic factors on disease spread and exploring the underlying mechanisms lay a foundation for improving the monitoring system of dengue fever and further implementing prevention and control measures. Under certain conditions, climatic factors such as temperature, light, precipitation, and relative humidity are closely related to the spread of dengue fever. Additionally, some extreme weather events affect the spread of this disease by influencing local microclimate. Therefore, it is recommended to include meteorological indicators in the existing monitoring system of dengue fever, thereby increasing the sensitivity of surveillance.
