Figure 5.

Response curves of (a) Wild bird WNV model and (b) Mosquito WNV model to land uses. Y axis: Probability of WNV presence; Maxent logistic output. X axis: 44 categories of land uses (landcorine). Red bars illustrated the positive effect of each category in model’s predictions: (a) Wild bird WNV model; (3) industrial or commercial units, (13) permanently irrigated land, (16) fruit trees and berry plantations, (20) complex cultivation patterns and (21) land principally occupied by agriculture; (b) Mosquito WNV model; (2) discontinuous urban fabric, (12) non-irrigated arable land, (15) vineyards, (16) fruit trees and berry plantations and (20) complex cultivation patterns.
