Statistical modeling reveals the effect of absolute humidity on dengue in Singapore by Xu, Hai-Yan, Fu, Xiuju, Lee, Lionel Kim Hock, Ma, Stefan, Goh, Kee Tai, Wong, Jiancheng, Habibullah, Mohamed Salahuddin, Lee, Gary Kee Khoon, Lim, Tian Kuay, Tambyah, Paul Anantharajah, Lim, Chin Leong, Ng, Lee Ching

“…From the correlation and DLNM regression modeling analyses of the studied period, AH was found to be a better predictor for modeling dengue incidence than the other unique weather variables. Whilst mean temperature (MeanT) also showed significant correlation with dengue incidence, the relationship between AH or MeanT and dengue incidence, however, varied in the three sub-periods. …”
