Abstract The Chinese giant salamander, Andrias davidianus, the world's largest amphibian,
is critically endangered and has an extremely unique evolutionary history. Therefore, this …

Populations see their range fluctuate in relation to environmental variations, including
climate change, and their survival is linked to the maintenance of large enough populations …

Climate change is one of the major threats to global amphibian diversity, and consequently,
the species distribution is expected to shift considerably in the future. Therefore, predicting …

Amphibian declines have been documented worldwide and several have been linked to
climate change, but the long-term data needed to detect declines are largely restricted to …
