From: How do non-independent host movements affect spatio-temporal disease dynamics? Partitioning the contributions of spatial overlap and correlated movements to transmission risk

Fig. 2

The relative contribution of non-independent host movement to FOI from direct transmission compared to spatial overlap for varying levels of social attraction \(\xi\) for hosts moving following an OU process. The contributions of non-independent movement were calculated on (A) 10 m \(\times\) 10 m grid cell and (B) 40 m \(\times\) 40 m grid cells centered on the home range center. The dashed line indicates an equal contribution of non-independent movement and spatial overlap for FOI. The colors of the points indicate the correlation \(\rho (x, s=0)\) in space use between the two hosts for a given value of social attraction \(\xi\). Finally, the blue triangles are a result of statistically estimating the relative contribution of non-independent movement from 1 year of movement data from two hosts with a drift coefficient of \(c = 0.05 \text { hour}^{-1}\) and \(\sigma = 150\,m\)
