5/ check out the accompanying Research Briefing that summarises the study in a lay-person manner: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

4/ lastly, we simulated how drought would impact frog activity based on physiological limits. The combination of warming & drought will have the largest impact in the warmest quarter of the year.

3/ ecological types (arboreal, ground-dwelling, stream-dwelling) do not predict drying risk, but water-conserving strategies such as water-proof skin & ability to make cocoons are important predictors.

2/ frogs globally are also at risk to a combination of increasing drought intensity, frequency, & duration by 2100.

1/ we show areas where frogs occupy will increase in dryness by up to 33% by 2100.
