A Set of Discrete Formulae for the Performance of a Tsetse Population During Aerial Spraying

S. J. Childs

A set of discrete formulae that calculates the hypothetical impact of aerial spraying on a tsetse population is derived and the work is thought to be novel. Both the original popul…

A Model of Teneral Dehydration in Glossina

S. J. Childs

The results of a long-established investigation into teneral transpiration are used as a rudimentary data set. These data are not complete in that all are at 25 …

An Improved Temporal Formulation of Pupal Transpiration in Glossina

S. J. Childs

The temporal aspect of a model of pupal dehydration is improved upon. The observed dependence of pupal transpiration on time is attributed to an alternation between two, essential…

The Finite Element Implementation of a K.P.P. Equation for the Simulation of Tsetse Control Measures in the Vicinity of a Game Reserve

S. J. Childs

An equation, strongly reminiscent of Fisher's equation, is used to model the response of tsetse populations to proposed control measures in the vicinity of a game reserve. The mode…

Theoretical Levels of Control as a Function of Mean Temperature and Spray Efficacy in the Aerial Spraying of Tsetse Fly

S. J. Childs

The hypothetical impact of aerial spraying on tsetse fly populations is investigated. Spray cycles are scheduled at intervals two days short of the first interlarval period and hal…

A Model of Pupal Water Loss in Glossina

S. J. Childs

The results of a long-established investigation into pupal transpiration are used as a rudimentary data set. These data are then generalised to all temperatures and humidities by i…
