Background photo expanded from Mitigating Climate Change’s Impact on Tick-Borne Zoonotic Disease Emergence - Figure 1: Infographic of the dangerous cycle that climate change creates for zoonotic diseases. Humans expand the wildlife-urban interface, and climate change continues to homogenize habitats, creating areas of increased biodiversity where novel species interactions can occur. These interactions present an increased risk for the spread of zoonotic diseases. Image depicts circle in quarters with chart title: climate change and zoonotic diseases. Subtitle: A dangerous cycle. Quarter 1: Depicts icon of crane and tree. Text reads: Expanding wildlife urban interfaces (WUI), Humans continue to use land in novel ways, expanding the WUI. Leads to Quarter 2: Depicts icon of Earth. Text reads: Homogenized habitats, Climate change is causing temperatures to rise globally, creating habitats that are more homogenous. Leads to Quarter 3: Depicts icon of leaf. Text reads: Increased biodiversity. Species can move more freely between homogenized habitats, increasing the level of biodiversity. Leads into Quarter 4: Depicts icons of network relationship between humans, deer, and ticks. Text reads: Novel species interactions. Novel species interactions occur in homogenized habitats, increasing the likelihood of disease transmission. Leads into Quarter 1.
