- Abstract
In this study, a relationship between seasonal influenza outbreaks and weather or climate was analyzed for three regions in Okayama Prefecture. The start and peak of influenza outbreaks were independent of severe or warm regional climates. While magnitudes of monthly mean temperature (mean bias) were not so clear for the levels of influenza outbreak, weekly levels related to some extent to weekly mean temperatures. Region-and yearrelated differences of weekly mean vapor pressure were smaller than temperature. For example, approximately 6 hPa of the weekly mean vapor pressure was good indicator for the level 2 of outbreak regardless of regional and annual climates; this value of vapor pressure corresponded to conditions of 60~70% for hourly virus survival rate and 70~80% for virus transmission rate which have been indicated in the previous research.
