Effect of water temperature and population density on the population dynamics of Schistosoma mansoni intermediate host snails

BACKGROUND: Mathematical models can be used to identify areas at risk of increased or new schistosomiasis transmission as a result of climate change. The results of these models can be very different when parameterised to different species of host snail, which have varying temperature preferences. C...
