Robustness Analysis of the Regional and Interregional Components of the Weighted World Air Transportation Network

Figure 8

LCC of the Europe-Russia component after its isolation from the network. The black dots are the remaining airports after attacks on the world air transportation network (a) strength attack, (b) weighted betweenness attack, and (c) weighted PageRank attack. The LCC isolated by the strength and weighted PageRank attacks covers almost all countries sparsely. The LCC is well distributed in all the initial component areas for the weighted betweenness attack.
