Was global warming linked to the extinction of the golden toad (Bufo periglenes) by facilitating chytridiomycosis? A new PNAS paper reconstructs a century of climatic data for Monteverde, Costa Rica, and suggests that cloud forest ecology changes have been driven by natural variability in the local climate (in particular, extreme dry periods associated with El Niño weather patterns) rather than by anthropogenic climate forcing. (Anchukaitis and Evans 2010).
