Abstract

Climate shift is thought to be responsible for the spread of vector-born-diseases. Current study was to evaluate the impact of temperature and relative humidity regimes on the developmental stages of <em>Ae. aegypti </em>and also the effect of population density dependence on the survival of <em>Ae. aegypti</em> larvae. In addition, the association among the vector larvae abundance, dengue cases incidence and climatic factors were elucidated during 2016-2019 in three populated districts of Punjab Province i.e., Lahore, Rawalpindi and Multan.
