The team of Earth scientists, health care workers and meteorologists affiliated with several institutions in China, and working with several international partners, reports that global dengue severity in Asia and South America can be predicted by sea-surface temperatures in the Indian Ocean in the months leading up to dengue season.

The report said that there is group group-modeled connection between climate patterns and the magnitude of dengue epidemics in parts of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

In this new study, the researchers found evidence that surface temperature readings prior to dengue season may be a much more accurate predictor of outbreak severity
