Amphibian Cover-Board Experiment Monthly Check -- June 2011
We checked our cover-board experiment comparing soft and hard wood types in a pair-wise comparison yesterday. Olivia Riccio and Rebecca Solnit (granddaughter of the owners who donated the land that hosts this experiment) were cowhands by checking most of the boards and calling out the species identification as we progressed through the grid. We observed 69 redback salamanders, 4 red efts, 1 spotted salamander, and 1 wood frog under the boards. A total of 55 out of 132 stations detected an amphibian.
