n: number of Aedes-positive microhabitats, PPM: proportions of Aedes-positive microhabitat type among the whole Aedes-positive microhabitats in each macrohabitat, PPSA: proportions of Aedes-positive microhabitat type among the whole Aedes-positive microhabitats in the study area. PPM and PPSA are expressed as percentage (%).
