Weather-driven dynamics of an intermediate host: mechanistic and statistical population modelling of Oncomelania hupensis

2007-08-01

Abstract excerpt

1. Population models of intermediate host species' abundance are vital tools for assessing the impacts of control activities and changing environmental conditions on host-parasite dynamics. Public health practitioners require reliable predictions to inform disease control decisions that target the intermediate host of human schistosomes. A synthesis of mechanistic and statistical modelling approaches was undertake...
