The cryosphere (including, snow, glaciers, permafrost, lake and river ice) is an integral
element of high mountain regions, which are home to roughly 10% of the global population …

Early calls for robust long-term time series of amphibian population data, stemming from
discussion following the first World Congress of Herpetology, are now being realized after …

Ectotherm thermal physiology is frequently used to predict species responses to changing
climates, but for amphibians, water loss may be of equal or greater importance. Using …

Concerns over the consequences of global climate change for biodiversity have spurred a
renewed interest in organismal thermal physiology. However, temperature is only one of …

Despite increasing interest in determining the population-level effects of emerging infectious
diseases on wildlife, estimating effects of disease on survival rates remains difficult. Even for …

Species' geographic range shifts toward higher latitudes and elevations are among the most
frequently reported consequences of climate change. However, the role of species …

Cool-adapted species inhabiting montane tropical forests are vulnerable to heat stress
associated with climate warming. According to the thermal mismatch hypothesis, pathogens …

Climate change will cause important declines in environmental suitability, especially when
living at high elevations. The critically endangered Salamandra lanzai from the Alps may be …

Climate change effects are contributing to widespread declines of amphibians, and pond-
breeding species may be particularly sensitive to future drought conditions that restrict …

We lack a strong understanding of how organisms with complex life histories respond to
climate variation. Many stream-associated species have multistage life histories that are …
