Plague risk in the western United States over seven decades of environmental change

Published:November 2021

Author(s):Colin J. Carlson, Sarah N. Bevins, and Boris V. Schmid

Publisher:Global Change Biology

This study finds that due to the changing climate, rodent communities at high elevations have become more conducive to the establishment of plague reservoirs and that spillover risk to humans at mid-elevations has increased as well.Read More →
