Global analysis of seasonal changes in trematode infection levels reveals weak and variable link to temperature

Abstract: Seasonal changes in environmental conditions drive phenology, i.e., the annual timing of biological events ranging from the individual to the ecosystem. Phenological patterns and successional abundance cycles have been particularly well studied in temperate freshwater systems, showing strong and predictable synchrony with seasonal changes. However, seasonal successional changes in the abundance of parasites or their infection levels in aquatic hosts have not yet been shown to follow universal patterns. Here, u… Show more

“…Therefore, there is still a lack of effective methods for detecting many parasites and for diagnosing and treating parasitoses and their related symptoms, such as allergic reactions and pathogen transmission. There is also a need to improve and develop parasitological monitoring and forecasting methods in response to local and global environmental changes, such as climate change, which often expand the range of the host and thus the parasite [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ].…”
