Aggregation and incidence of disease

Many ecological data (Taylor, 1961a; Taylor et al., 1978) exemplify Taylor's empirical law describing a linear relationship between the logarithms of the variance and mean of population density of a species estimated from groups of replicate samples. This «power-law» has been used as a statistical description of aggregation (Taylor, 1961a), for the formulation of variance-stabilizing transformations in the analysis of count data (Taylor, 1961b), and as the basis of a behavioural model of species' spatial dispositions (Taylor & Taylor, 1977) []
