Measuring and Monitoring Biological Diversityis the first book to provide comprehensive coverage of standard methods for biodiversity sampling of amphibians, with information on analysing and using data that will interest biologists in general. In this manual, nearly fifty herpetologists recommend ten standard sampling procedures for measuring and monitoring amphibian and many other populations. The contributors discuss each procedure, along with the circumstances for its appropriate use. In addition, they provide a detailed protocol for each procedure's implementation, a list of necessary equipment and personnel and suggestions for analysing the data. The data obtained using these standard methods are comparable across sites and through time and as a result, are extremely useful for making decisions about habitat protection, sustained use and restoration--decisions that are particularly relevant for threatened amphibian populations.
