Adaptive responses to salinity stress across multiple life stages in anuran amphibians
Albecker, Molly; McCoy, Michael W. (2017-08-01)Background In many regions, freshwater wetlands are increasing in salinity at rates exceeding historic levels. Some freshwater organisms, like amphibians, may be able to adapt and persist in salt-contaminated wetlands by ... -
Influence of density and salinity on larval development of salt-adapted and salt-naïve frog populations
Albecker, Molly; Pahl, Matthew; Smith, Melanie; Wilson, Jefferson G.; McCoy, Michael W. (2020-01-08)Environmental change and habitat fragmentation will affect population densities for many species. For those species that have locally adapted to persist in changed or stressful habitats, it is uncertain how density ... -
Mismatched anti-predator behavioral responses in predator-naïve larval anurans
Albecker, Molly; Vance-Chalcraft, Heather D. (2015-12-07)Organisms are adept at altering behaviors to balance the tradeoff between foraging and predation risk in spatially and temporally shifting predator environments. In order to optimize this tradeoff, prey need to be able to ... -
