The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Pacific Northwest CESU is offering a research grant to a partner for studying the Oregon Spotted Frog. This grant aims to provide valuable demographic information for management agencies and assess the impact of various management actions. The research will address questions such as seasonal survival in relation to water level changes, population growth post-pond creation, effects of beavers on frogs, individual survival rates in the wild, and impacts of bullfrog removal. Applications are open until Apr 16, 2019.
