Data for "How vulnerable are amphibians to climate change? A mechanistic perspective"
Abstract
This dataset compiles species-level morphological, ecological, and behavioral traits for amphibians used in our climate vulnerability analyses. It includes observed and phylogenetically imputed estimates of body size, body mass, activity timing, and habitat use, along with associated data sources and metadata flags indicating imputation status. The dataset was created from Moura et al. 2024 and used here for inference.Moura, M. R., Ceron, K., Guedes, J. J. M., Chen-Zhao, R., Sica, Y. V., Hart, J., Dorman, W., Portmann, J.
