Bluetongue in Europe: recent history Infectious to all ruminants; severe disease in sheep & some deer Reoviridae: Orbivirus, 24 serotypes VECTORS Mapping Asian tiger mosquito suitability.

Constant in time and space Constant in time, varying in space Varying in time and space Simulated future Regional R0 changes This misses out observed outbreaks in Corsica Unrealistic values over mountains and Eastern Europe Shading: Ro risk (arbitrary scaled between 0 and 1) From Guis et al, 2011 % change in R0 Multimodel spread Sign consistency The BT risk increases over UK, Southern France and North- western Spain (Galicia) Changes in Northern Europe are related to the pathogen properbes Changes in Southern Europe are associated with the spread of the Afro- Tropical vector (Imicola spp) 2

(Modelling) Climate change and malaria Do the malaria models reproduce the observed trends in malaria endemicity over the 20 th century? What is the impact of climate change on malaria distribution based on a multi-model ensemble? Uncertainties? How do the different malaria models behave under a warmer climate? New results different from those 20 years ago?

Malaria Incidence in summer: Europe Based on the Liverpool Malaria Model simulabons driven by observed Rainfall and Temperature from different observed datasets. Northern Italy, some parts of Galicia in Spain and the Landes region in France are climabcally at risk The incidence values are relabvely low in magnitude (20-50%) compared to what can be expected in Africa.

Emission Scenario uncertainties increase as a function of time (about 40% over the highlands in 2080s, consistent with a Temperature effect on malaria transmission for those regions). 5
