Body size is a critical component of organismal biology. Body size is known to be influenced
by a plethora of environmental conditions, among which exposure to large scale variations …

Among a multitude of stressors to which wildlife is exposed, environmental pollution is a
pervasive one that poses a serious threat. The permeable skin of amphibians is likely to …

Early-life environmental variation can influence later-life physiology, such as the regulation
of glucocorticoids. However, characterizing the effects of environmental factors on hormone …

Environmental salinization is recognized as a global threat affecting biodiversity, particularly
in coastal ecosystems (affected by sea level rise and increased frequency and severity of …

Salinity (sodium chloride, NaCl) from anthropogenic sources is a persistent contaminant that
negatively affects freshwater taxa. Amphibians can be susceptible to salinity, but some …

Current environmental changes can drastically affect aquatic freshwater ecosystems.
Salinization is one such change that affects freshwater species due to osmotic costs, which …

Proximity to the seashore is a critical structuring factor of coastal wetlands due to its
influence on varying sources of nutrients (marine and terrestrial) and on the spatial gradient …

We studied the effects of salinity on the egg fertilization, hatching, and tadpole growth and
survival rates of the Thailand frog (Rana tigerina Dubois, 1981), an introduced species that …

The primary hormone that drives developmental change during amphibian metamorphosis
is thyroid hormone (TH), although metamorphic timing is ultimately controlled by the …

Les zones humides côtières sont caractérisées par des variations spatiales, temporelles, et
liées aux changements globaux, de la salinité. Ces variations de salinité peuvent influencer …
