The survey was the first study to make a quantitative assessment of the conservation status of the EU Annex V (Habitats Directive) species 1213 Rana temporaria throughout the Republic of Ireland. Survey results were reflected in the Article 17 Conservation Status Assessment for the species in 2013.
