Summary of the effect of transmission modes (acting alone or in concert) on the nature of the relationship between animal movement rate, m, and metapopulation patch occupancy

Transmission mode(s) Relationship between movement rate and patch occupancy Source
Movement-based transmission only (M) Nonmonotonic Hess (1996)
Environmental transmission only (E) Monotonic Figure 4
Spillover transmission only (S) Monotonic Figure 4
M and E Both nonmonotonic and monotonic possible (depending on parameters) Figure 2
M and S Both nonmonotonic and monotonic possible (depending on parameters) Gog et al. (2002)
E and S Monotonic Figure 5
