Drivers of amphibian diversity in disturbed wetlands of Kenya’s central highlands

2026-02-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Amphibians are the most threatened class of vertebrates, facing severe global declines driven largely by anthropogenic pressures such as wetland drainage. As key bioindicators, monitoring anuran populations is essential for assessing habitat degradation. Here, we examine how human activities—including noise pollution—affect water quality and habitat conditions, and how these factors inf...
