Although arid zones of Australia are characterised by extremes of temperature, little is known about the thermal ecology of frogs inhabiting these regions. This project will determine the effects of temperature on the physiology of an arid-adapted frog and determine whether likely increases in global temperatures will impact its survival.

虽然澳大利亚的干旱地区以极端温度为特征，但人们对栖息在这些地区的青蛙的热生态知之甚少。该项目将确定温度对适应干旱的青蛙生理的影响，并确定全球气温可能上升是否会影响其生存。
