CLARIFYING CAUSALITY AND INFORMATION FLOWS BETWEEN TIME SERIES: PARTICULATE AIR POLLUTION, TEMPERATURE, AND ELDERLY MORTALITY

Exposure-response associations between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and mortality have been extensively studied but potential confounding by daily minimum and maximum temperatures in the weeks preceding death has not been carefully investigated.This paper seeks to close that gap by using lagged partial dependence plots (PDPs), sorted by importan
