Brief description Living in a changing climate: the impacts of temperature during aestivation on burrowing frogs. Although arid zones of Australia are characterised by extremes of temperature, little is known about the thermal ecology of frogs inhabiting these regions. This project will determine the effects of temperature on the physiology of an arid-adapted frog and determine whether likely increases in global temperatures will impact its survival.
