Differentiating Migration and Dispersal Processes for Pond-Breeding Amphibians (2008, unknown): “Dispersal or switching of breeding ponds by adults has also been observed in natural populations and when stochastic or anthropogenic factors cause ponds to deteriorate (Pechmann et al. 2001, Petranka and Holbrook 2006, Gamble et al. 2007).”
Restoring ponds for amphibians: a success story (2009, background): “For threatened species, it is important to identify particular areas and habitats where the restoration is expected to give the best results (Baker & Halliday, 1999; Nyström et al., 2007), but even then the species may not become established on their own (Pechmann et al., 2001).”
Influences of Design and Landscape Placement Parameters on Amphibian Abundance in Constructed Wetlands (2010, background): “Although artificial wetlands can provide surrogate habitat for amphibians (Knutson et al. 2004; Simon et al. 2009; Brand and Snodgrass 2010), their suitability for individual species likely depends on incorporating habitat requirements into wetland plans (Pechmann et al. 2001; Hazell et al. 2004).”
