Figure 4.

Sample landscapes used for applying LSM and ITNs in combination. Subfigures (a), (b) and (c) represent three 40 × 40 landscapes, each containing 200 aquatic habitats, with different densities of houses (density_houses): (a)Low (20), (b)Medium (70) and (c)High (200), respectively, with corresponding human population densities of 100, 350 and 1,000, respectively. Aquatic habitats and blood meal locations are shown as blue circles and house-shaped icons, respectively. For 240 distinct parameter combinations (involving density_houses, LSM coverage, ITN coverage and ITN mortality, as shown in Table 4), similar landscapes are generated and 50 replicated simulations are run for each (see Figure 11 for results). All landscapes are generated using the landscape generator tool VectorLand.
