Anopheles population in minor mosquito season. Observed (a, b) and simulated (c, d) Anopheles populations during the minor mosquito season in 2013 (a, c) and in 2014 (b, d). An increase in Anopheles population was observed in May 2013, but not in May 2014 (a, b). This difference was simulated with reasonable accuracy in HYDREMATS (c, d, black line), which can be attributable to different profiles of wind direction. The observed wind direction in 2013 (c, black) worked to enhance mosquito population slightly, as compared to an assumed condition with random wind direction (primary determinan, blue). The observed wind direction in 2014, on the other hand, worked to suppress the mosquito population (d, black), as compared to an assumed condition with random wind direction (d, blue)
