Monte Carlo Simulation of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Surveillance Sample Sizes

Dataset

Description

These datasets contain the complete output from a Monte Carlo simulation of the number of wild cervids to test for chronic wasting disease (CWD) depending on true prevalence. Five CSVs of the simulation results are provided, split due to limitations in file size. The R code used to run the simulation and process the data is included. The data to replicated Table 1 and the data used to compare the simulation results to the CWD surveillance efforts of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) are also provided.
