Full Description
The principle purpose of this project is to conduct a population genetic analysis of Oregon Spotted Frogs (Rana pretiosa) in the Klamath Basin by testing for recent population declines, landscape connectivity, responses to restoration, and improve our understanding of population genetics of the Oregon Spotted Frog. It is anticipated that award will be made to a member of the Rocky Mountains Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit. CESUs are partnerships with colleges and universities that provide research, technical assistance, and education.
