Supplementary Material 5: Addressing spatial autocorrelation from Human infectious disease burdens decrease with urbanization but not with biodiversity Chelsea L. Wood Alex McInturff Hillary S. Young DoHyung Kim Kevin D.

This non-independence is problematic because it can inflate Type I error. Here, we describe our approach to addressing spatial autocorrelation in our analysis. 2017-03-27 13:48:38 Infectious disease disability-adjusted life year dilution effect global change
