Global sensitivity analyses using LHS parameter sets and isolating the impact of changes in median proportion of humans infected to FOI and snail density. The median proportion of humans infected at equilibrium is sensitive to both the snail-to-human transmission rate, and the density of snails. There are greater proportions of humans infected for the model without snail age stratification than for models with snail age stratification at comparable snail density and snail-to-human transmission rate values.
