Abstract:The demographic characteristics of an amphibian population fluctuate independently over time, mainly in response to the temporal variation of environmental factors, especially precipitation and temperature. These temporal fluctuations may contribute to the effective size of an amphibian population and could be used to inform the current conservation status of a species. During a five year (2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008) period, we studied the relative abundance, sex ratio, and size-age structure of a population… Show more
