@mastersthesis {82511, title = {Effects of Secondary Salinization on Three Coastal Breeding Amphibians in Oregon: Taricha granulosa, Hyliola regilla, and Rana aurora}, year = {2018}, note = {Amphibian populations around the world are stressed, and many species show population declines. One stressor of amphibians is secondary salinization. Salts may intrude on freshwater through pollution, road salting, or rising sea levels. On the Oregon Coast, sea level rise is the greatest threat to native amphibians. In this Master{\textquoteright}s thesis, the author tests the salt tolerance of three native species of amphibians through laboratory work and field studies. Color photographs, color maps and aerial photographs. {\textquotedblleft}These results suggest that all study species may experience population declines in the future associated with secondary salinization{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract).
