Dr Aedes could you elaborate please?
Sure Ms Daskalos.
Hello guys. I research how climate change enables new ways for disease to travel around the world.

As an IPCC author we can’t be expected right off the bat to know personally all of the research and findings that are going on, so we depend on other experts in our fields.
We connect with them, learn about new papers, read reports and talk about findings and trends.
We summarise what the latest knowledge is and share our drafts with other experts.
We invite comments and questions.
That means that anyone who thinks of themselves as an expert may ask to comment on the draft. 
And for every comment or question, we authors have to produce a response, an explanation, or an answer.
For the 2014 Fifth IPCC Assessment Report there were about 140,000 reviewer queries.
