Modeling chronic wasting disease transmission risk in mule deer related to habitat characteristics
Fig 3
Marginal effects of environmental covariates from top model predicting chronic wasting disease transmission risk for the South Converse Mule Deer Herd based on spatial properties of habitat used by deer.
Spatial covariates included A) distance to perennial water source during summer, B) compound topographic index (CTI) during summer, C) CTI during winter, D) distance to secondary road, and E) distance to cropland during winter. Color indicates differences in effects by genotype (*F or SS).
