Effects of variation in disease parameters on the period (left column) and amplitude (right column) of the multiyear cycles predicted by model (1), for fixed values of β (labelled on plot) and different rodent population parameters ()
Parameter values are: (a, b) Kielder forest field voles; (c, d) Manor Wood bank voles; (e, f) French common voles; (g, h) northern Fennoscandian field voles. Results for all values of β, for all rodent population parameters, are given in . In the colour bar ‘n.d.’ denotes simulations in which the di...

| Summary: | Parameter values are: (a, b) Kielder forest field voles; (c, d) Manor Wood bank voles; (e, f) French common voles; (g, h) northern Fennoscandian field voles. Results for all values of β, for all rodent population parameters, are given in . In the colour bar ‘n.d.’ denotes simulations in which the disease prevalence decays to zero during the course of the simulation. In these cases the susceptible population density exhibits regular annual cycles. Similarly, ‘n.c.’ denotes simulations in which disease remains endemic in the population and all four population components exhibit regular annual cycles. The dominant period of the multiyear dynamics was measured by spectral analysis (using fast Fourier transform) of 256 years of equilibrium population data, measured annually (see for a review). The amplitude was the difference between the maximum and the minimum total population density in this data set. For brevity we do not distinguish between regularly repeated multiyear cycles and irregular (pseudo-periodic) multiyear cycles.
