EL4P.Parameters(nAqua, nHumans, R0, eqAqua, EIP, lifespan, G, nu, S,
  alpha_a = 0.8, alpha_sd = 0.004, p = 0.9, K_a = 1, K_b = 1,
  b = 0.55, c = 0.15, r = 1/38)

Arguments

nAqua

number of aquatic habitats on landscape

nHumans

number of humans on landscape

R0

desired pathogen transmission level at equilibrium

eqAqua

vector of probability of oviposition at each aquatic habitat

EIP

length of the entomological incubation period

lifespan

average lifespan of mosquito

G

mean total lifetime egg production of adult female

nu

mean egg batch size for single oviposition

S

stability index; number of bites on humans over the average mosquito lifespan

alpha_a

density independent survival parameter alpha from pupae to adult

-log(alpha_a^{\frac{1-p}{5}})

alpha_sd

standard deviation of density independent survival parameter alpha

p

expected fraction of cohort that advances to next life stage (1/p is expected time spent in each stage L1,L2,L3,L4,P)

K_a

shape parameter for gamma distributed weights on K

K_b

scale parameter for gamma distributed weights on K

b

mosquito to human transmission efficiency

c

human to mosquito transmission efficiency

r

rate of recovery in humans (1/average length of infection)
