Although agrochemicals and solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation are both environmental stressors currently associated with amphibian decline, little is known about their interactive …
Dispersal and gene flow within animal populations are influenced by the composition and configuration of the landscape. In this study, we evaluated hypotheses about the impact of …
Over 80% of amphibian species that are declining are forest dependent. Forestry practices are a major cause of forest alterations globally, and it is well documented that clearcutting …

Harvest of forest biomass, specifically downed woody material (DWM), will increase to meet rising demand for alternative energy sources. Biomass harvest may reduce habitat quality …
Behavioral strategies of natal dispersers in response to human‐altered habitat have far‐ reaching implications for functional connectivity and local population dynamics. Spotted …
Globally, savanna ecosystems are shifting outside of “safe operating spaces” due to removal of their primary self-reinforcing feedback—fire—and subsequent erosion of disturbance …
