Effects of forest removal on amphibian migrations: implications for habitat and landscape connectivity (2009, methodology): “S ITE AND EXPERIMENTAL ARRAYS We selected four forested sites on the Savannah River Site for study (see also Rothermel & Luhring 2005; Todd & Rothermel 2006).”
The Role of Microhabitats in the Desiccation and Survival of Anurans in Recently Harvested Oak–Hickory Forest (2008, background): “…Semlitsch, 2006; Semlitsch et al., 2008), but amphibians emerging from overwintering or aestivation sites may be caught within clearcuts when harvest occurs during inactivity periods and some individuals may choose to travel through harvested stands (Patrick et al., 2006; Todd and Rothermel, 2006).”
Effects of Timber Harvest on Amphibian Populations: Understanding Mechanisms from Forest Experiments (2009, background): “We also showed that such microhabitat conditions lead to rapid water loss and high mortality in small-scale caging studies (Rothermel and Luhring 2005, Rittenhouse et al. 2008, Todd et al. 2008) and most likely provide the direct mechanism for reduced abundance demonstrated in many previous studies.”
