• Amphibian decline, pond loss and reduced population connectivity under agricultural intensification over a 38 year period (2017, background): “After larval development and metamorphosis some of the juveniles will attempt to disperse (Cushman, 2006), a process which can take several years (Semlitsch, 2008).”
• Influences of Design and Landscape Placement Parameters on Amphibian Abundance in Constructed Wetlands (2010, background): “Nearby wetlands allow for movement between breeding sites, re-colonization following local extinctions, and “stepping stones” during dispersal (Marsh and Trenham 2001; Johnson et al. 2007; Semlitsch 2008b ).”
• Quantifying and disentangling dispersal in metacommunities: how close have we come? How far is there to go? (2010, background): “Increasing the degree of specificity in individual tracking, genetic markers such as microsatellite DNA (Semlitsch 2008) have been used to estimate dispersal/gene flow for over half a century through examining the spatial distribution of genetic variation (Berry et al.”
• Impacts of habitat loss and restoration on amphibian populations (2009, background): “…amphibians breed in freshwater habitats and spend the rest of the activity period in the surrounding terrestrial habitats or they move between different habitats for reproduction, foraging and hibernation (Skelly et al. 1999, Marsh and Trenham 2001, Semlitsch 2008, Stevens and Baguette 2008).”
• The effects of urbanization on North American amphibian species: Identifying new directions for urban conservation (2012, background): “…respond negatively to urbanization; however, more information is required (e.g., regional species-specific responses to urbanization) before conservation practitioners have the necessary information needed to solve regional conservation problems effectively (Gilioli et al. 2008; Schmidt 2008).”
• Effects of forest removal on amphibian migrations: implications for habitat and landscape connectivity (2009, background): “Post-metamorphic amphibians live, forage, and overwinter in terrestrial uplands near aquatic reproduction sites (Semlitsch 2008).”
