Table 2.

Multifractal signatures of measles and chicken pox, presented as the peak positions and base widths of singularity spectra. Means and standard deviations were computed from monthly time series for four geographical locations for each disease (cf. figure 8 for chicken pox and figure 10 for measles).

disease	peak	width	type
chicken pox			approximately monofractal
measles			multifractal
