Summary

The outputs of the Aquaculture Network Disease Model (AquaNet-Mod), predicting the epidemiological and economic burden of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia in English and Welsh salmonid farms under various disease control scenarios.

Included are outputs of the AquaNet-Mod from FY22-23. The code for generating these outputs can be found at the aquanet_ and aquanet-mod_ GitHub repositories.

For the summary data, there are .csv files which give the epidemic size, duration and cost for each simulation. For the epidemic size and duration, the files also give an indication as to whether an epidemic died out or timed out.

The summary data contains five zipped output sub-files:

( 1.)scenarios - Contains the outputs of disease control scenarios described in Guilder et al. (in prep) and Kennerley et al. (in prep). ( 2.)fishery_cull - Contains the outputs of the baseline disease control scenario, with different proportions of fisheries able to cull. ( 3.)fallow_period - Contains the outputs of the baseline disease control scenario, with different lengths of fallow period. ( 4.)n_sims - Contains the outputs of baseline disease control scenario, with a different number of simulations. Note: doesn’t contain economic data. ( 5.)sensitivity_tests - Contains the outputs of model sensitivity tests described in Guilder et al. (in prep).
