REGIONAL DYNAMICS OF WETLAND‐BREEDING FROGS AND TOADS: TURNOVER AND SYNCHRONY (2003, background): “Agriculture and roads are common upland habitat modifications that have been shown to adversely impact amphibian populations in other studies (Fahrig et al. 1995, Carr and Fahrig 2001, Findlay et al. 2001, Davidson et al. 2002, Guerry and Hunter 2002).”
Effects of Urbanization on the Distribution and Abundance of Amphibians and Invasive Species in Southern California Streams (2005, background): “Many amphibian declines are also related to the loss, degradation, and fragmentation of remaining natural habitat (e.g., Lehtinen et al. 1999; Guerry & Hunter 2002), but perhaps because these threats are generally acknowledged for all taxa, they are less often implicated as a cause of amphibian…”
Pond-Breeding Amphibian Species Richness and Habitat Selection in a Beaver-Modified Landscape (2007, background): “…research in North America has investigated the relative importance of local and landscapescale variables in predicting amphibian species richness in human-altered landscapes (Hecnar and M’Closkey 1998, Kolozsvary and Swihart 1999, Lehtinen et al. 1999, Findlay et al. 2001, Guerry and Hunter 2002).”
Effects of landscape characteristics on amphibian distribution in a forest-dominated landscape (2005, methodology): “…(Findlay and Houlahan, 1997), amphibian species richness (Hecnar and M Closkey, 1996), and presence and density of A. maculatum (Hecnar and M Closkey, 1996; deMaynadier and Hunter, 1998; Guerry and Hunter, 2002) and N. viridiscens (Hecnar and M Closkey, 1996; Gibbs, 1998b; Guerry and Hunter, 2002).”
Multi-scale effect of landscape processes and habitat quality on newt abundance: Implications for conservation (2006, background): “For many of them, forests are an important resource for hibernation, foraging and migrations (Guerry and Hunter, 2002, Houlahan and Findlay, 2003, Porej et al. , 2004 and Hermann et al. , 2005).”
Effect of landscape context on anuran communities in breeding ponds in the National Capital Region, Canada (2007, background): “Forest proximity and wetland isolation, two common measures of the spatial arrangement of remnant habitat, have been shown to be strong predictors of amphibian species richness and occurrence in both urban and agricultural areas (Laan and Verboom 1990; Kolozsvary and Swihart 1999; Lehtinen et al. 19”
Biological corridors and connectivity (2013, background): “Methods for empirically estimating resistance Habitat quality as surrogate for landscape resistance Habitat quality can be predicted based on patterns of occupancy in relation to ecological conditions, such as through resource selection functions (e.g. Guerry & Hunter 2002; Weyrauch & Grubb 2004).”
LANDSCAPE CHARACTERISTICS INFLUENCE POND OCCUPANCY BY FROGS AFTER ACCOUNTING FOR DETECTABILITY (2005, background): “However, the sole protection of ponds is insufficient for amphibian conservation and additional landscape components such as terrestrial habitat must be included (e.g., Pope et al. 2000, Guerry and Hunter 2002, Gibbons 2003, Houlahan and Findlay 2003, Johnson and Semlitsch 2003).”
Effects of experimental forestry treatments on a Maine amphibian community (2006, result): “The reported sensitivity of ambystomatid salamander species to reduced canopy cover (deMaynadier and Hunter, 1998; Cromer et al., 2002; Guerry and Hunter, 2002; Rothermel and Semiltsch, 2002), and to the retention of CWD in clearcuts (Moseley et al., 2004) was also seen in our results.”
