From: Applications and limitations of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention miniature light traps for measuring biting densities of African malaria vector populations: a pooled-analysis of 13 comparisons with human landing catches

Figure 4

Fitted sampling efficiencies of light traps relative to human landing catches. Each point corresponds to a single matched set of mosquito collections; the shaded orange polygons correspond to 95% credible intervals for the best fitting curves, estimated for each site, with the transparency of the orange colouring inversely proportional to the surface area of the polygon. The grey lines demarcate the envelope within which 95% of fitted curves of unobserved studies are expected to fall based the variation observed in the studies used in this analysis (based on the joint posterior distributions of \(\alpha_{s}\) and \(\gamma_{s}\)). Panel a shows the linear model for An. gambiae; panel b shows the linear model for An. funestus; panel c shows the power model for An. gambiae, and panel d shows the power model for An. funestus.
