Abstract

Temperature and rainfall patterns are known to influence dengue seasonality. However, the impact of extreme drought or extremely wet conditions on the timing and intensity of dengue epidemics is poorly understood. In this study, we quantify the non-linear and delayed effects of hydrometeorological extremes on dengue risk along an urban gradient in Brazil.
