The results of the sensitivity analysis using different deforestation accumulation periods.

Accumulation Period for Assessing Deforestation	Relative Risk (95% Credible Interval)	Deviance Information Criterion
One years	1.153 (1.116–1.192)	24,123.36
Two years	1.188 (1.146–1.233)	24,112.64
Three years	1.196 (1.152–1.242)	24,109.29
Four years	1.207 (1.161–1.256)	24,111.03
Five years	1.213 (1.167–1.261)	24,101.32
Six years	1.207 (1.162–1.255)	24,102.20

Note: The relative risks (RR) were for an increase in deforestation level by interquartile range, and the zero-inflated negative binomial model with spatial autocorrelation, which had the lowest deviance information criterion value, was used to produce the RR. Other variables were used to adjust for potential confounding effects, including population density, the number of farmers, budget dependency, temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, amount of sunlight, agricultural land use, urban land cover, forest land cover, and altitude.
