Amphibian breeding and climate change
Article Abstract:
Climatic changes influence breeding activities and eventually lead to significant changes in population structure that are reflected in population declines of species that are specially sensitive, such as some amphibians. Some temperate-zone anuran populations show that a trend toward breeding earlier, whereas others do not, therefore it is important to track breeding patterns of amphibians with long-term data sets to fully understand how threatened populations can be managed.

Amphibian breeding and climate change: Reply to corn
Article Abstract:
Corn has suggested that long-term data sets are necessary to fully assess amphibian breeding phenology. It has been replied to Corn that long-term data sets and the criteria necessary to assess population trends in amphibians have been discussed in detail in several previous publications that Corn fails to cite.
