Fig. 8From: Predicting temperature-dependent transmission suitability of bluetongue virus in livestockModeled midge density as it varies with temperature. To obtain the temperature-dependent midge density, V(T), we evaluate Eq. 11 at all temperature-dependent traits using the fitted curves. The solid black line shows the estimated density, and the dashed lines show the corresponding HPD interval. A constant value \(V=2\) is shown for comparison for subsequent modeling where the density is constantBack to article page
