Fine-scale heterogeneity in population density predicts wave dynamics in dengue epidemics (Nature Communications)
Population density can influence the dynamics of emerging infections, but the specific effects at a local (within-city) level are not well understood. Here, the authors investigate the influence of population density on dynamics of dengue outbreaks in Rio de Janeiro and propose that this variable holds the key to how space should be aggregated.
