- The values of R(t) for the Northern hemisphere correspond to the rescaling of the maximum likelihood value of R
0 in Mexico and in the Tropical regions (R
0 = 1.75) and the best values for the seasonality rescaling factor, 0.6 < αmin < 0.7. The parameter αmin indicates the minimum value of the seasonal rescaling of R
0 induced by the sinusoidal forcing in the Northern hemisphere [17].
