Restoring ponds for amphibians: a success story (2009, background): “Most special restoration has been smallscale and scattered (usually 1–3 ponds locally; Petranka & Holbrook, 2006; Petranka et al., 2007), while traditional approaches to create and restore wetlands may have even reduced regional amphibian diversity (Porej & Hetherington, 2005).”
Amphibian production in forested landscapes in relation to wetland hydroperiod: A case study of vernal pools and beaver ponds (2009, background): “Amphibians can rapidly colonize newly created breeding sites (Hopey and Petranka, 1994; Patrick et al., 2008) and may respond to perturbations, such as fish invasions, human-associated disturbances, or prolonged drought, by moving to different breeding sites (Petranka et al., 2004; Petranka and Hol”
Impacts of habitat loss and restoration on amphibian populations (2009, background): “That knowledge is also essential for informing conservation managers as to how to renew the ecological integrity of degraded habitat matrices and create self-sustaining systems for long-term persistence of resident populations (Petranka and Holbrook 2006), including their metapopulation structure (S”
Comparative landscape dynamics of two anuran species: climate-driven interaction of local and regional processes (2009, background): “…where the embedded breeding sites (ponds) were subject to temporal variation in quality, and concordance of pond populations with the above four criteria simply reflects variation in quality of breeding sites over time (see Petranka et al. 2004, Petranka and Holbrook 2006 for an example).”
Long-term persistence of amphibian populations in a restored wetland complex (2007, background): “The decline in 2006 may in part reflect lag effects from the impact of Ranavirus outbreaks that reached their highest levels of occurrence from 1999 to 2001, reduced juvenile output from fish ponds after 2002 due to direct predation on larvae (Petranka and Holbrook, 2006), and the avoidance of const”
Rethinking patch size and isolation effects: the habitat amount hypothesis (2013, background): “…and through the non-habitat parts of the landscape, the ‘matrix’, including not only dispersal movements but also seasonal movements and even daily movements (e.g. Baguette et al., 2000; Broome, 2001; Fraser & Stutchbury, 2004; Petranka & Holbrook, 2006; Roe et al., 2009; Schultz et al., 2012).”
Distribution of amphibians in terrestrial habitat surrounding wetlands (2007, background): “Third, our analysis does not address species that shift breeding sites within or among years (Petranka and Holbrook 2006) or situations where net distance traveled by amphibians during migration is altered due to movement barriers in the landscape or disturbances (e.g., timber harvest or…”
