a–f, Each violin plot shows the distribution of users at the end of 15 years when the input parameter values are varied over their full range for each strategy. Each coloured region ranges from the minimum to the maximum number of users, with its width indicating the probability density of the distribution at any particular number of users. The violin plots also show the median values (white dots), interquartile ranges (thin black vertical lines) and 95% confidence intervals (thin black lines) of each distribution. The results are shown for Strategies 1a (a), 1b (b), 2a (c), 2b (d), 3a (e) and 3b (f). Note that the results for Strategies 1a, 1b, 2a and 3a are shown on a scale from 0 to 1,400 users, while those for Strategies 2b and 3b are shown on a scale from 0 to 80,000 users.
