Two views of a quaternary plot showing the relative contributions to basic reproduction number (R0) from 1) horizontal transmission of La Crosse virus by eastern tree-hole mosquitoes, 2) vertical transmission by eastern tree-hole mosquitoes, 3) horizontal transmission by Asian tiger mosquitoes, and 4) vertical transmission by Asian tiger mosquitoes. This figure plots only the 8,602 replicates (out of 10,000) wherein Asian tiger and eastern tree-hole mosquitoes coexisted. Parameters for each repl

Figure 3. Two views of a quaternary plot showing the relative contributions to basic reproduction number (R0) from 1) horizontal transmission of La Crosse virus by eastern tree-hole mosquitoes, 2) vertical transmission by eastern tree-hole mosquitoes, 3) horizontal transmission by Asian tiger mosquitoes, and 4) vertical transmission by Asian tiger mosquitoes. This figure plots only the 8,602 replicates (out of 10,000) wherein Asian tiger and eastern tree-hole mosquitoes coexisted. Parameters for each replicate were sampled from the ranges according to our Latin hypercube sampling scheme (http://www.clfs.umd.edu/biology/faganlab/disease-ecology.html).
