Amphibian conservation global evidence for the effects of interventions
Amphibian Conservation is the fourth volume in the Synopses of Conservation Evidence series, linked to the online resource www.conservationevidence.com. This synopsis is part of the Conservation Evidence project and provides a useful resource for conservationists. It forms part of a series designed to promote a more evidence-based approach to biodiversity conservation. Others in the series include Bee, Bird, Farmland and Bat Conservation and many others are in preparation. The series will cover different species groups and habitats, gradually building into a comprehensive summary of evidence on the effects of conservation interventions for all biodiversity throughout the world. This book brings together and summarizes the available scientific evidence and experience relevant to the practical conservation of amphibians. The authors consulted an international group of amphibian experts and conservationists to develop a global list of interventions that could benefit amphibians. For each intervention, the book summarizes studies captured by the Conservation Evidence project, where that intervention has been tested and its effects on amphibians quantified. The result is a thorough summary of what is known, or not known, about the effectiveness of amphibian conservation actions across the world.
