Interaction of behavior and physiology of anurans in response to thermal and hydric stress: an approach to understand the vulnerability of anurans to climate change

In this master thesis, the thermoregulation model proposed by Heath (1970) was updated, integrating the effects of the hydration level on the thermoregulation behavior and the thermal tolerance limits of the Bull Frog, Lithobates catesbeianus (Chapter I). For the thermoregulation behavior the prefer...
