Predicting the biodiversity impacts of global warming implies that we know where and with what magnitude these impacts will be encountered. Amphibians are currently the most threatened vertebrates, mainly due to habitat loss and to emerging infectious diseases. Global warming may further exacerbate their decline in the near future, although the...

We are currently living in a scenario of climate change in which the rise of the average environmental temperatures and the increase of events of extreme temperature peaks is forecasted, among others. The study of the thermal tolerance and sensitivity is very important, particularly in amphibians, when forecasting the impact of rising...
