From: Modeling the role of environmental variables on the population dynamics of the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto

Parameter	Functional form
d₁(T_W)	$1.011 + 20.212 {(1 + {(\frac{T_{W}}{12.096})}^{4.839})}^{- 1}$
d₂(T_W)	$8.130 + 13.794 {(1 + {(\frac{T_{W}}{12.096})}^{4.839})}^{- 1}$ − d₁(T_W)
d₃(T_W)	$8.560 + 20.654 {(1 + {(\frac{T_{W}}{19.759})}^{6.827})}^{- 1} - d_{2} (T_{W})$
