Assessing threats to pool-breeding amphibian habitat in an urbanizing landscape (2009, background): “Breeding and post-breeding habitat are connected by overland migrations often over 100 m (Semlitsch and Bodie, 2003), with juvenile dispersal from natal pools likely exceeding 1000 m (Gordon, 1968; Berven and Grudzien, 1990; Gamble et al., 2007).”
Effects of forest removal on amphibian migrations: implications for habitat and landscape connectivity (2009, background): “However, other studies increasingly demonstrate the role of landscape connectivity in amphibian population dynamics and persistence ( Gamble et al. 2007; Stevens & Baguette 2008).”
Comparative landscape dynamics of two anuran species: climate-driven interaction of local and regional processes (2009, background): “Additionally, amphibian populations are cited as prime candidates to exhibit metapopulation/metacommunity structure as larval interactions are restricted to ponds distributed over a terrestrial landscape (e.g., SjogrenGulve 1994, Alford and Richards 1999, Gamble et al. 2007).”
