This database compiles results of amphibian surveys conducted in Yellowstone (YELL) and Grand Teton (GRTE) national parks, including the J.D. Rockefeller Memorial Parkway (JODR), in the summer of 2000 and 2001. The format is based on the NPS template for an integrated natural resource database, and was prepared by GRYN Biological Inventory Coordinator Lane Cameron. The database houses data in a set of related tables: Locations, Events, Survey Data, and Amphibian Observations. The survey project was supported by the National Park Service Greater Yellowstone network (GRYN) Inventory & Monitoring Program and the USGS Amphibian Research and Monitoring Initiative. The main objective was survey of potential amphibian breeding habitat in randomly-chosen watershed units from a GIS layer prepared by YELL GIS. Within the selected units, active breeding sites as well as the presence of non-breeding amphibians and reptile species were recorded.
