Table 1. Parameters of the three dispersal kernels used in the simulation study.
Kernel range | Simulation parameters | Mixture parameters | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
s1 | s2 | J | Mean distances in m (weights) | |
short | 12727.3 | 29264.2 | 1 | 25 (1) |
medium | 9.3 | 18.1 | 2 | 25 (2/3), 100 (1/3) |
long | 5.5 | 8.4 | 3 | 25 (3/6), 100 (2/6), 300 (1/6) |
Epidemics were simulated using BWME kernels with parameters s1 and s2 (left), approximating exponential mixture kernels with J mixture components (right).
