Movement is a fundamental process of all organisms that has strong consequences for
individual fitness, gene flow, natural selection, adaptation, population persistence …

Descriptions of amphibian habitat, both aquatic and terrestrial, often include plants as
characteristics but seldom is it understood whether and how those plants affect amphibian …

As part of an overall decline in biodiversity, populations of many organisms are declining
and species are being lost at unprecedented rates around the world. This includes many …

Vernal pools provide critical breeding habitat for amphibians adapted to temporary waters,
but they seldom receive the same level of protection as permanent wetlands. In response to …

Long-term population persistence depends on successful dispersal and colonization. Within
agricultural landscapes, dispersing individuals encounter a variety of edge types. How …

The transition from aquatic to terrestrial habitat is thought to be a period of high mortality for
amphibians. We used radio telemetry to estimate survival and study factors influencing …

Natural disturbances can drive disease dynamics in animal populations by altering the
microclimates experienced by hosts and their pathogens. Many pathogens are highly …

Restoration of the Pinus palustris (longleaf pine)‐wiregrass ecosystem of the southeastern
United States requires information on reference conditions such as the historical fire regime …

Understanding the impact of natural and anthropogenic landscape features on population
connectivity is a major goal in evolutionary ecology and conservation. Discovery of dispersal …

Despite the growing roles of assisted reproduction and captive breeding in reintroductions,
we have a limited understanding of the viability of these animals once released. We …
