Fig. 6

Analysis of the variation of precipitation and latitude. A Annual precipitation amount (mm/year) variation versus latitude variation (Left: South; Right: North). The red dots represent the precipitation values of the sites with reported presences according to latitude. Open dots represent the precipitation values of a grid point arranged latitudinal. The blue dots represent the frequency of HPS cases according to latitude (frequency values are shown on the y-axis to the right) and B) Precipitation seasonality versus latitude variation. The red dots represent the precipitation seasonality values of the sites with cases presence according to latitude. Open dots represent the precipitation seasonality values of a grid point arranged latitudinally. The blue dots represent the frequency of HPS cases according to latitude (frequency values are shown on the y-axis to the right)
