• The amphibian decline crisis: A watershed for conservation biology? (2005, background): “Nevertheless, the significance of increased UV-B radiation in amphibian declines remains uncertain, and ongoing conflicts over methodologies, analysis and interpretation of available data show no sign of waning (e.g., Kats et al., 2000, 2002; Cummins, 2002; Blaustein et al., 2003; Heyer, 2003; Licht”
• Amphibian Population Declines: Evolutionary Considerations (2007, background): “For example, it has been stated that amphibians have a “high resistance”to UVB (Licht 2003), and it has been suggested that many amphibian “eggs are apparently well protected against even today’s UVB levels” (Beardsley 2003).”
• THE AMPHIBIAN TREE OF LIFE (2006, background): “…including habitat loss and fragmentation (Green, 2005; Halliday, 2005) but also possibly due to global environmental changes (Donnelly and Crump, 1998; Blaustein and Kiesecker, 2002; Heyer, 2003; Licht, 2003) and such proximate causes as emerging infectious diseases (Collins and Storfer, 2003).”
• Climate warming and the decline of amphibians and reptiles in Europe (2006, background): “Despite evidence from field and laboratory experiments that increases in UV-B may cause mortality in amphibian species, the possibility of a link between UV-B and global amphibian declines remains controversial (e.g. Cummins, 2002; Kats et al., 2002; Licht, 2003).”
• Climate change and amphibians (2005, background): “B hypothesis is controversial and has been the subject of a series of contentious critiques and rebuttals (Licht & Grant, 1997; Corn, 2000; Cummins, 2002; Kats et al., 2002; Blaustein et al., 2003b, 2004; Blaustein & Kats 2003; Licht, 2003).”
