Marginal posterior distributions for parameter estimates.

<p>Panels give the sampled posterior distribution, conditional on the observations from all rabbits, for (a) baseline establishment, <i>γ</i>₁, (b) effect of cumulative exposure on establishment, <i>γ</i>₂, (c) effect of parasite intensity on establishment, <i>γ</i>₃, (d) maximum daily clearance, <i>β</i>₁, (e) effect of cumulative exposure on establishment, <i>β</i>₂, (f) effect of parasite intensity on establishment, <i>β</i>₃, (g) mean final length, <i>μ</i>_<i>L</i>, (h) variance in final parasite length, and <i>σ</i>_<i>L</i> (i) parasite growth rate, <i>α</i>. The posterior for pre-treatment animals is shown in blue, the posterior for post-treatment animals is shown in red. The x-axis in each panel spans the range of the uniform prior for each parameter. Below each panel is shown the posterior mean (circle) for each individual animal and the central 95% of the rabbit-specific posterior distribution. Estimates for animals sampled on days 15, 30, 45, 60 are plotted from top to bottom; pre-treatment animals are shown in blue, post-treatment animals are shown in red.
