Projecting the impacts of climate and land-use change on avian influenza suitability in Bangladesh.

ABSTRACT: Climate and land-use change are expected to influence the future dynamics of zoonotic disease outbreaks, including avian influenza, a prime example of a One Health challenge. Environmental and socio-economic conditions modulate the risk of virus spillover from wild birds to farmed animals and, subsequently, to humans through multiple transmission pathways. However, the extent to which changing environmental conditions may alter the spatial suitability for avian influenza transmission across regions and interfaces in the future remains uncertain. To address this gap, we developed a spatially explicit, integrated modelling framework that simulates wild and farmed bird distributions and incorporates this information into a spatial structural equation model of avian influenza exposure suitabil
