This grant from the U.S. Geological Survey’s Wetland and Aquatic Research Center (USGS WARC) is for conducting manipulative experiments on amphibian phenology. The primary purpose is to investigate how these findings can be applied to the effective management of amphibian populations, particularly in the face of environmental changes. A key objective is the development of robust models capable of simulating and predicting the impact of future climate conditions on critical life history events of salamanders. This research will enhance our understanding of ecosystem responses to climate variability and provide crucial tools for conservation strategies, ensuring the resilience of vulnerable amphibian species.
