A) A summary of average temperatures at 30 min intervals recorded by iButtons inserted into the ventral surface of painted polyacrylic crawfish frog models placed in association with crawfish frog burrows in vegetated and postburn habitats. On 4 days (18 through 20 and 27 October) temperatures were low, frogs did not emerge, and data were discarded (shaded areas). B) Temperature differences calculated by subtracting average temperatures in vegetated areas from corresponding average temperatures in postburn areas. Note that daytime highs in the postburn areas were as much as 14 °C warmer than highs in postburn areas, and during cold conditions, postburn habitats were cooler. On average, postburn areas were 4 °C warmer than vegetated areas.
