In DyMSiM, the carrying capacity C0 of the model limits the number of eggs allowed to develop, based on water levels available in simulated containers. We set the latter so that C0 has a maximum value of 11,500 developing eggs and immatures per day. The actual value of C0 varies owing to evaporation and rainfall, but this variation is minimal and our simulations show it is <2%. Consequently, small variations in evaporation do not lead to significant changes in mosquito abundance.
