From: Variation in microparasite free-living survival and indirect transmission can modulate the intensity of emerging outbreaks

Figure 6

Summary of the hypothetical “reservoir world” outbreak intensity measures. Graphs correspond to the attributes of simulated epidemics where environments are entirely composed of a given physical surface, and larger values correspond to various aspects of outbreak intensity. (A) \({\mathcal{R}}_{0}\), (B) total number of infected (and symptomatic) after 30 days of outbreak, (C) the inverse time to peak number of symptomatic individuals (tmax-1; larger values = shorter times to reach peak), (D) peak number of symptomatic individuals, (E) deaths after 30 days, and (F) environmental transmission fraction. Note the log scales on the y-axis in (B), (D) and (E).
