setup_mosquito_RM {MicroMoB}

Setup generalized Ross-Macdonald mosquito model

Description

This is a generalized RM model which allows for time varying EIP and survival probability. It complies with the mosquito component interface, and may be simulated deterministically or stochastically.

Usage

setup_mosquito_RM(
  model,
  stochastic,
  f = 0.3,
  q = 0.9,
  eip,
  p,
  psi,
  nu = 25,
  M,
  Y,
  Z,
  N = NULL
)

Arguments

model

an object from make_MicroMoB

stochastic

should the model update deterministically or stochastically?

f

the blood feeding rate

q

the human blood feeding fraction

eip

the Extrinsic Incubation Period (may be time varying see time_varying_parameter)

p

daily survival probability (may be time and patch varying see time_patch_varying_parameter)

psi

a mosquito dispersal matrix (rows must sum to 1)

nu

number of eggs laid per oviposition

M

total mosquito density per patch (vector of length p)

Y

density of incubating mosquitoes per patch (vector of length p)

Z

density of infectious mosquitoes per patch (vector of length p)

N

l by p matrix describing how eggs from mosquitoes in patches are distributed amongst aquatic habitats. If NULL it is the identity matrix of dimension l.

Value

no return value
