Code for reproductive habitat mismatch influences chytrid infection dynamics in a tropical amphibian community
April 28, 2025
This repository contains data and code supporting the Gilbert et. al manuscript entitled, "Reproductive habitat mismatch influences chytrid infection dynamics in a tropical amphibian community". The objective of the paper is to identify the influence of life history, rainfall, and habitat on chytrid infection dynamics in a frog community in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest. The code (see Repository Directory in the README) includes R scripts to fit models and create figures.

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has been decimating amphibian populations globally; previous work indicates that infection risk increases with moisture and thermal mismatch from a host’s optimum. We hypothesized that, in addition to these abiotic influences, mismatch of hosts from their reproductive habitat heightens infection risk via exposure and/or susceptibility mechanisms. We...
