CAREER: Investigating the ecological drivers and consequences of reproductive mode in thermal plasticity in plethodontid salamanders

US NSF grant open #nsf-2543042

Summary

Safeguarding the resilience of America’s vast natural resources depends on scientific knowledge to help streamline and direct monitoring efforts. Forecast models are critical for prioritizing resources in a fast-paced, changing world, but knowing what data is needed to accurately parameterize these models remains a challenge. For example, wild animal populations are made up of both males and females, and it is generally assumed that both are equally sensitive to environmental changes. However, new research is revealing that this may be an oversimplification. Knowing when and where such vulnera
