open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 842-862, December 2025.
Correlative modelling approaches can be used successfully to predict the distribution of vectors and hosts involved in vector‐borne diseases of concern. For West Nile virus in the United Kingdom, host distributions are unlikely to be a significant factor influencing change. Vector distributions and urbanisation will drive increasing risk. Projecting to
