Variable | Explanation |

Publication year | |
Exclusion of an abstract and reason for omission at this stage | Not mentioning one of the selected potential CSIs; not studying animals or humans (only environment) |
Characterisation of CSI | The abstract supports that Abiotic: Presence, spread, prevalence or persistence of the CSI is dependent on the ambient temperature, humidity, vegetation cover, surface water or other climate variable Ecosystem: Climate-driven changes in ecosystems or habitats are a driver in the epidemiology of the CSI Vectors and reservoirs: Spread or persistence is dependent on arthropod vectors, intermediate hosts and/or reservoir animals, which in turn are dependent on temperature or other climate variables for their geographical distribution, population density, persistence etc. Opportunistic: Individuals under stress due to environmental and climate conditions are more easily infected with the CSI The infection was classified as climate-sensitive |
