Figure 1 in Van Irsel et al. (2025): "The mapped model predictions of the gradient boosting model showing the USUV occurrence over the Netherlands for the years 2016 (A), 2017 (B), 2018 (C), 2019 (D), 2020 (E), 2021 (F), and 2022 (G). Colours indicate the USUV occurrence probabilities ranging from 0 (white) to 1 (dark orange). For each year the histogram of the monthly total number of dead reported blackbirds is shown (n), with the months selected for our analyses (June–October; blue) and all other months (red)."
