Amphibian Ecology and Conservation: A Handbook of Techniques (Techniques in Ecology & Conservation)
"The book is far more than a cookbook or field guide. It is a synthesis. I hope my fellow amphibian ecologists (and discerning ecologists specializing in other taxa and systems) will join me in thanking the many folks who made this handbook a reality; we, our students, and protégés will benefit for years to come."--Bulletin of the Canadian Association of Herpetologists"This handbook is likely to serve as a valuable herpetological reference tool for years to come."--Bulletin of the British Ecological Society"This manual provides a state-of-the-art review of many new techniques used to study amphibians. RECOMMENDATION: For herpetologists and conservation biologists."--Birdbooker Report"The current volume edited by Dodd is largely different than its predeccessor, expanding some research areas, while adding serveral chapters on newer pertinent research foci. Noteworthy additions include chapters on amphibian molecular genetics, disease monitoring and biosecurity, landscape ecology, and GIS methods and rapid diversity assessments." --New Biological Books
