Application of growing degree day-water budget analysis concepts to 2 snail-borne diseases (schistosomiasis and fascioliasis) in East Africa are reviewed to demonstrate use of the unique thermal-hydrological preferences and limits of tolerance of individual parasite-vector systems to define the environmental niche of disease agents in the landscape by modern geospatial analysis tools.
