Abstract:
Oncomelania hupensis is the intermediate host of Schistosoma japonicum, and its distribution is consistent with that of schistosomiasis. Temperature is an essential environmental factor for the survival of snails. Therefore, it is important to study the impact of climate warming on snail-breeding and schistosomiasis transmission. This paper reviews the importance of climate warming to snail breeding and the spreading of the disease, and the application of relative research techniques.
