Climate change adaptation measures for amphibians (09/30/2022)
Presentation by Dr. Antonio Bea at the conference “Instruments for climate action in natural heritage” organized by Ihobe at the Europa Conference and Exhibition Center in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Basque Country)
The results of the study “Climate change adaptation measures for amphibian species in the Basque Country” are presented, which was developed by Ihobe in collaboration with Ekos Estudios Ambientales.
Amphibians are species that inhabit both terrestrial and aquatic habitats in their life cycle, which is why they are especially vulnerable to climate change. The models predict significant reductions in the area of distribution of most of the species in the Basque Country. To minimize the impact of climate change, climate change adaptation measures are proposed to reduce non-climatic pressures, improve the conservation status of key elements, improve ecological connectivity, create favorable habitats, manage extreme weather events, etc.
