)

Arguments

ix: an index over nPatches
phi: ITN coverage
ff: baseline blood feeding rate
qq: baseline human fraction
gg: baseline mosquito mortality rate
tau0_frac: a [numeric] vector giving the proportion of a feeding cycle spent host seeking/bloodfeeding *vs.* resting/oviposition
rr: probability of mosquito being repelled upon contact with ITN
ss: probability of mosquito successfully feeding upon contact with ITN

Value

an **`xds`** model object
