The number of passengers transported is affected by many factors: time of day, fare, time of year, route characteristics, speed of the message, etc. Where can I see publications about the main patterns of passenger traffic changes?

You need more elaborations on " main patterns of passenger traffic changes". What do you mean by this? As you have rightly mentioned, the passenger frequency can depend on these factors or similar, are you looking for something else?
