Vulnerability Rankings for 'Species of Greatest Conservation Need' Amphibians of the North Central US, According to 2 Different Climate Change Projection Scenarios
The attached spreadsheets are ranked climate change vulnerability estimates of amphibians in the north central United States. All species are listed as species of greatest conservation need in at least one of the 7 states in the north central region (Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas). Vulnerability scores are developed from exposure data from evapotranspiration deficit projections across 2 climate change scenarios, along with sensitivity and adaptive capacity traits from literature values and range maps. We used readily-available data from climate projections, range maps, and life history traits to score vulnerability in these data-deficient species, where more detailed life history information may not be available.
