    Landscape structure plays a key role in shaping mosquito distribution and associated health risks in changing climates. As part of the UMEX-HOPE project at the Lower Saxony Centre for Climate Research (ZKfN), we investigate how different landscape structures influence mosquito community abundance across urban–rural gradients in and around the city of Hanover. Using high-resolution remote...

    Historical samples provide unique insights into pathogen evolution and help to uncover mechanisms underlying pathogen emergence, adaptation, and spread. While DNA pathogens can be retrieved from millennia-old environmental samples, less stable RNA viruses are usually limited to pathology collections from the last centuries.
