ABSTRACT

As temperaturas dos primeiros trimestres do período de 1986-2003, especialmente as mínimas, mostraram-se significativamente mais altas nos anos em que as epidemias de dengue tiveram início na Cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Não houve relação significativa com o total das precipitações pluviométricas para os mesmos trimestres, contudo, as epidemias foram mais freqüentes nos anos em que o volume de chuvas no verão foi pequeno (abaixo de 200mm).


Temperatures in the city of Rio de Janeiro in the first quarter of the year over the period 1986-2003, especially the minimum, were significantly higher in the years in which dengue epidemics started in the city. There was no significant relationship with total rainfall for the same quarter of the year, but epidemics were more frequent in the years in which the volume of rain during the summer was small (less than 200mm).
