The COVID‐19 pandemic and its related human activity shutdowns provide unique
opportunities for biodiversity monitoring through what has been termed the “anthropause” or …

Understanding the environmental drivers of species' dispersal and migration patterns is
needed to accurately predict climate change impacts on populations. For pond-breeding …

There is considerable variation among studies that evaluate how amphibian populations
respond to global climate change. We used 23 years of annual survey data to test whether …

Genetic studies on core versus peripheral populations have yielded many patterns. This
diversity in genetic patterns may reflect diversity in the meaning of “peripheral populations” …

Understanding metapopulation dynamics requires knowledge about local population
dynamics and movement in both space and time. Most genetic metapopulation studies use …

Predator species and body size represent critical factors that have differential effects on prey
populations, as well as overall community structure. However, investigations of how …

Juvenile vital rates have important effects on population dynamics for many species, but this
demographic is often difficult to locate and track. As such, we frequently lack reliable …

Variation in the timing of breeding (ie, phenological variation) can affect species interactions
and community structure, in part by shifting body size differences between species. Body …

The need for long-term demographic studies on apparently healthy amphibian populations
led us to undertake an intensive examination of a population of Spotted Salamanders …

Individual survival is influenced by interactions between local environmental conditions and
an organism's morphological, behavioural and physiological traits. Studies examining the …
