Salah satu dampak dari perubahan iklim adalah kemungkinan peningkatan kejadian yang terus menerus dari vector borne disease. Demam berdarah dengue (DBD) merupakan penyakit berbasis vektor yang menjadi penyebab kematian utama di banyak negara tropis. Penelitian sebelumnya menyatakan bahwa variasi iklim (jumlah hari hujan, lama penyinaran matahari, kelembaban) memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan insiden DBD di Kota Bogor. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui gambaran dan hubungan antara faktor iklim (suhu, curah hujan, hari hujan, lama penyinaran matahari, kelembaban, dan kecepatan angin) dengan kejadian DBD di Kabupaten Serang tahun 2007-2008. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi data sekunder faktor iklim dan jumlah kasus DBD. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada hubungan yang bermakna antara faktor iklim suhu, curah hujan, hari hujan, lama penyinaran matahari, kelembaban, dan kecepatan angin dengan angka insiden DBD di Kabupaten Serang tahun 2007-2008. Hal ini disebabkan karena kurang lamanya durasi data yang diambil, kurang lengkapnya data iklim yang didapat, dan kurangnya frekuensi data insiden DBD yang diambil.

One of the impacts of climate change is the possibility of continuous increase in the incidence of vector borne disease. Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a vector-based disease that causes many deaths in tropical countries. Previous research stated that climate variation (number of rainy days, solar radiation, humidity) was significantly related to the high incidence of dengue in Bogor city. The purpose of this research is to know the description and the correlation between climatic factors (temperature, rainfall, rainy days, solar radiation, humidity and wind speed) and the incidence of DHF in Serang District in 2007-2008. The data collected include secondary data on climatic factors and the number of dengue cases. The results of this study indicate that there was no significant correlation between the climate factors (temperature, rainfall, rainy days, solar radiation, humidity, and wind speed) and the incidence rate of DHF in Serang District in 2007-2008. The reasons for this are the following: the data were not collected for a sufficiently long period of time; the obtained climate data were incomplete; and there was insufficient data on the frequency of DHF incidences taken.

Four leading scientists present the most up-to-date discoveries in the different fields of Ice Age Research. They reveal how the epoch was discovered, the profound climatic fluctuations it generated as ice sheets waxed and waned, and the myriad ways in which humans and animals coped with the changing world they lived in.

The papers in this volume span a suite of climate change repercussions, paying particular attention to national security and human health aspects. It is an outcome of a NATO Advanced Research Workshop held during April 28-30, 2011 in Dubrovnik, Croatia, sponsored by the NATO Science for Peace and Security Program.
