In all steps of filtering at the province-level, and for both time periods, τ 1 and τ 2 , absolute humidity was not associated to R proxy , with P values ranging between 0.161 and 0.922 (Tables 9, 10 , 11, 12, 13, 14, 15) . For cities, for time-period τ 1 , and after the first step of filtering, absolute humidity appeared to be associate with R proxy with a p value equal to 0.004 (Supplementary Table S5 ). ./cache/cord-350255-tthttyl3.txt ./txt/cord-350255-tthttyl3.txt
