Fig 5
General Additive Modeling (GAM) (1) results of the selected land covers explaining the number of scrub typhus cases in Nan Province between 2003–2019 by villages and year, using a binomial negative link function (theta = 1.075).
The smoothed variables selected in the best GAM were: (A) year, (B) number of males per village, (C) shrubland cover, (D) mosaic land cover, (E) broadleaf forest cover, (F) needleleaf forest cover and (G) geographical distribution of villages (longitude and latitude).
