Identifying Factors Responsible for Ranaviral Disease Outbreaks in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park: There is urgent need to 1) identify the factors responsible for ranavirus emergence at Gourley Pond, 2) quantify the effects of ranavirus outbreaks on the Gourley Pond amphibian community, and 3) quantify the translocation risk of ranavirus from Gourley Pond to other Great Smoky Mountains National Park sites. We will accomplish these objectives through a combination of mark-recapture sampling, pathogen surveillance, and estimating public visitation at Gourley Pond.
