Fig. 3: Sensitivity of Ae. aegypti population fitness (rm) to proportional changes in juvenile and adult traits by temperature across resource levels.
From: Competition and resource depletion shape the thermal response of population fitness in Aedes aegypti

Juvenile survival and development contributed more substantially to rm, as relatively small changes in the summed matrix elements for these traits would result in relatively large changes in rm. Sensitivity of rm to adult traits (survival, fecundity) was much weaker compared to sensitivity to juvenile traits. Juvenile traits are shown in (a), (c), (e), (g), and (i). Adult traits are shown in (b), (d), (f), and (h). Source data are in Supplementary Data 3.
