Table 2.

Predictor variables included in Ae. aegypti, Ae. albopictus and dengue cases favorability models. Signs in brackets show the positive or negative relationship between favorability and the variables in the models. The Wald parameter indicates the relative weight of every variable in each model. Variable abbreviations are given in Table 1
