From: A sterile insect technique pilot trial on Captiva Island: defining mosquito population parameters for sterile male releases using mark–release–recapture

Fig. 4

Spatial distribution of recaptured marked sterile males showing clusters within the release area observed in the multiple-point MRR studies (a MP01, b MP02, c MP03, d MP04). The MDT was based on the cumulative estimated recapture, the trap density in the annuli area, and male capture from the single-point releases. The heat maps represent kernel density estimations, which took into consideration the BG-Sentinel capture radius of 50 m and the number of mosquitoes captured. Blue crosses represent BG-Sentinel positions, while green stars indicate release points
