A decision support tool for assessing current and future occupancy trends for boreal toads in the Southern Rocky Mountains

May 22, 2025

This is repository contains all publicly-released code and data supporting the Southern Rocky Mountains boreal toad decision support tool, which was developed as a part of a North Central Climate Adaptation Science Center-funded project entitled “A framework for guiding management decisions for amphibians in an uncertain future”, by Dr. Amanda M. Kissel (USGS), Dr. Erin Muths (USGS), Mae Lacey (Conservation Science Partners), Dr. Viorel Popescu (Columbia University), Dr. Marissa Dyck (University of Victoria), and Dr. Caitlin Littlefield (Conservation Science Partners). It contains scripts necessary for running the R shiny decision support tool/web app (SRM-boreal-toad-occupancy-tool-USGS). The complete version of this code and web app uses sensitive data that are not readily available to the public, and thus different versions of this application may present the included datasets at differing levels of detail depending on whether the publicly or privately available version is being viewed. Given that this version is public-facing, all sensitive datasets have been removed. Please contact the authors to request access to the private repository and web app.
