| Biting rate | (1/(0.0943 + 0.0043*T))/24 | [25] |
| Extrinsic incubation period | (−0.1393 + 0.008T)/24 | [5] |
| Viremic period | 4 days | [26] |
| Mosquitoes to human transmission rate | 0.8 | [26] |
| Human to mosquito transmission rate | 0.8 | [26] |

Tmean = Daily mean temperature. T = Hourly temperature.
