Modeling Dynamics of Culex pipiens Complex Populations and Assessing Abatement Strategies for West Nile Virus
The primary mosquito species associated with underground stormwater systems in the United States are the Culex pipiens complex species. This group represents important vectors of West Nile virus (WNV) throughout regions of the continental U.S. In this study, we designed a mathematical model and comp...
