The effect of simulating different intermediate host snail species on the link between water temperature and schistosomiasis risk.
INTRODUCTION: A number of studies have attempted to predict the effects of climate change on schistosomiasis risk. The importance of considering different species of intermediate host snails separately has never previously been explored. METHODS: An agent-based model of water temperature and Biompha...
