Figure 4

Correlation across provinces (A) or districts (B) between annual dengue incidence and variation in epidemic timing. Epidemic timing represents the pairwise interprovince or interdistrict delay between wavelet transformed annual dengue time series. The variation in epidemic timing is significantly correlated with the overall magnitude of transmission in that year; there is less variation (i.e., more synchrony) in the timing of dengue epidemics across southern Vietnam in high-incidence years than
