The number of emerging adults is a function $$\Lambda S(t) T(t)$$ where

  • \(\Lambda\) or Lambda is the mean number of adult female mosquitoes emerging per day

  • \(S(t)\) or F_season is a seasonal signal (ideally, with an average annual mean of 1)

  • \(T(t)\) or F_trend is a function returning a trend (ideally, with an average value of 1)
