This study investigates the spatial distribution and habitat preferences of plethodontid salamanders within the Arcata Community Forest in Humboldt County, California. By examining salamander abundance in relation to surface water proximity and soil moisture content during the winter-spring period, I aim to identify key environmental factors influencing their distribution. This research highlights the importance of understanding seasonal variations and the complex interrelationships between salamanders and their habitat within diverse forest ecosystems.
