Data Release Capture-mark-recapture data for Oregon spotted frogs [Rana pretiosa] along the Deschutes River, Oregon, 2016-2019

Altered flow regimes can contribute to dissociation between life history strategies and environmental conditions, leading to reduced persistence reported for many wildlife populations inhabiting regulated rivers. The Oregon spotted frog Rana pretiosa is a threatened species occurring in floodplains, ponds, and wetlands in the Pacific Northwest with a core range in Oregon, USA. All life stages of R. pretiosa are reliant on aquatic habitats, and inundation patterns across the phenological timeline can have implications for population success. We conducted capture–mark–recapture (CMR) sampling of adult and subadult R. pretiosa at three sites along the Deschutes River downstream from two dams that regulate flows. We related the seasonal extent of inundated habitat at each site to monthly survival probabilities using a robust design CMR model. We also developed matrix projection models to simulate population dynamics into the future under current river flows. Monthly survival was strongly associated with the extent and variability of inundated habitat, suggesting some within-season fluctuations at higher water levels could be beneficial. Seasonal survival was lowest in the winter for all three sites, owing to limited water availability and the greater number of months within this season relative to other seasons. Population growth for the two river-connected sites was most strongly linked to adult survival, whereas population growth at the river-disconnected site was most strongly tied to survival in juvenile stages. This research identifies population effects of seasonally limited water and highlights conservation potential of enhancing survival of particularly influential life stages.

Data Release Data from a road ecology study of Spotted Salamanders along the Natchez Trace Parkway, Mississippi, in 2012-2013
Authors: Brad M Glorioso; Hardin J Waddle
Date: 2025-03-25 | Outlet: ScienceBase
This dataset contains study results examining the effect of road mortality on migrating salamanders along the Natchez Trace Parkway in Mississippi from 2012-2013. A combination of methods were used to assess the movement of salamanders to and from the breeding pond. Environmental variables such as air and water temperature, water salinity, and relative humidity were also collected during the study. A traffic counting device was also installed at the edge of the study area to monitor the number of vehicles passing through the area during migration events. Surveys to quantify egg masses in the breeding pond were also completed during the study.

Data Release Survival and sublethal effects of amphibians exposed to NaCl and brines from energy production
Authors: Brian J Tornabene; Creagh W Breuner; Blake R Hossack
Date: 2019-06-25 | Outlet: PANGAEA Data Publisher for Earth & Environmental Science
We investigated the influence of brines and NaCl alone at commensurate concentrations on three larval amphibian species that occur in areas with energy-related brine contamination. The dataset contains size information (mass in grams, snout-vent length in millimeters) of larval Boreal Chorus Frogs (Pseudacris maculata) and Leopard Frogs (Rana pipiens) and Barred Tiger Salamanders (Ambystoma mavortium) taken during 96-h lethal-concentration-50 experiments. Larvae were generally exposed to concentrations of brine or NaCl ranging from 0–8,000 mg/L increasing by 1,000 mg/L increments. Other associated dataset: https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.913836
Data Release Corticosterone Mediates Lethal and Sublethal Effects and a Growth-Survival Tradeoff for a Larval Amphibian Exposed to Increased Salinity
Authors: Brian J Tornabene; Blake R Hossack; E J Crespi; Creagh W Breuner
Date: 2018-11-06 | Outlet: PANGAEA Data Publisher for Earth & Environmental Science
We investigated the influence of increased salinity on survival, growth, water content, and Corticosterone responses of larval Northern Leopard Frogs (Rana pipiens) by exposing them to environmentally-relevant salinity treatments for 24 days. We also inhibited Corticosterone for half of the replicates using mifepristone to determine if Corticosterone mediates effects of salinity and tradeoffs between traits. Other associated datasets:

Data Release California Red-Legged Frogs in Point Reyes coastal dune drainages (2015)
Authors: Brian J Halstead; Patrick M Kleeman
Date: 2017-05-22 | Outlet: USGS - Science Base
California Red-legged Frogs (Rana draytonii) are typically regarded as inhabitants of permanent ponds, marshes, and slow-moving streams, but their ecology in other habitats, including coastal dunes, remains obscure. To avoid and minimize potential negative effects of dune restoration activities, we studied the spatial ecology, habitat selection, and survival of California Red-legged Frogs in coastal dune drainages at Point Reyes National Seashore, California. Frogs remained in their home drainages throughout the summer, and, with some notable exceptions, most remained close to water. Home ranges of California Red-legged Frogs in dunes were generally small, and they selected areas near water with logs that served as refuge from environmental extremes and predators. California Red-legged Frogs avoided invasive dune plants, and had high survival rates in coastal dune drainages. Whether frogs will use dunes dominated by native species in the same manner as they use dunes degraded by non-native plants, and whether a more dynamic dune ecosystem will maintain the microhabitats necessary to support California Red-legged Frog populations in the future remains unknown.
