Site-level Foliar C, N, delta13C data from samples collected during field survey associated with NEON AOP survey, East River, CO 2018.
Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) weight percent concentrations were obtained from the bulk foliar samples collected across East River, Washington Gulch, Slate River, and Coal Creek watersheds in Gunnison, Colorado during the summer of 2018. These samples were collected from sun-lit leaves of meadow, shru
Locations, metadata, and species cover from field sampling survey associated with NEON AOP survey, East River, CO 2018.

Groundwater level elevation and temperature across Meander C at the Lower Montane in the East River Watershed, Colorado.
This groundwater level elevation and temperature data package is aimed at improving the predictive understanding of hydro-biogeochemical processes at the lower montane site in the East River Watershed, Colorado. The dataset is obtained using pressure transducers placed in shallow wells in the floodp
Geophysical borehole logging data of wells ER-GLS1, ER-GUM1, ER-PLM7, and ER-PLM8 at the East River Watershed, Colorado.
The purpose of this data set is to provide a means of characterizing the bedrock variability both within a single borehole location and across the East River Watershed. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United St

Total Dissolved Nitrogen and Ammonia Data for the East River Watershed, Colorado (2015-2022)
This data package contains mean values for total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) and ammonia concentrations for water samples taken from the East River Watershed in Colorado. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United Sta
Soil Environmental Conditions in the East River Watershed, CO.
This dataset contains depth-resolved soil environmental variables collected between June 2016 and October 2018 from the Bradley Meadow site in the East River watershed. Datalogger output from 7 Campbell CS655 12 cm Soil Moisture and Temperature Sensors including depth, temperature, volumetric water
Shale drilling field notes, lithologic descriptions, and core photographs of wells PLM5, PLM8, GUM1, and GLS1 at the East River Watershed, Colorado.
The purpose of this dataset is to maintain a record of the shale drilling field notes, lithologic descriptions, and core photographs taken at the PLM5 (Pumphouse Lower Montane Borehole #5), PLM8 (Pumphouse Lower Montane Borehole #8), GUM1 (Gothic Upper Montane Borehole #1), and GLS1 (GLS1 = Gothic L
Modeling the impact of riparian hollows on river corridor nitrogen exports
This package contains all reactive transport simulation outputs used in "Modeling the impact of riparian hollows on river corridor nitrogen exports" (Rogers, D.B., et al., 2021). The simulation outputs reflect hydrological and biogeochemical behavior of a single, generalized riparian hollow located
1 m Resolution Basic Landcover Map for the Upper Gunnison Domain Derived from NAIP Imagery and LiDAR
This is 1 meter resolution landcover map developed for the RMBL Spatial Data Platform. Source datasets include 2017 and 2019 4-band imagery from the National Aerial Imagery Program, and 2019 LiDAR data collected by Quantum Geospatial for the Colorado Hazard Mapping Program. The numeric codes for the
Winter Travel Time from Crested Butte for the Upper East River Domain
This map represents the estimated on-road and off-road travel time in minutes from Crested Butte via the fastest travel means available (snowmobiles excluded). Estimates apply for winter (snow-on) conditions. This map was generated with the cost distance GRASS GIS module (r.cost) using estimated tra
Summer Travel Time from Gothic for the Upper East River Domain
This map represents the estimated on-road and off-road travel time in minutes from Crested Butte via the fastest travel means available (snowmobiles excluded). Estimates apply for summer (snow-off) conditions after all roads have been opened to vehicle traffic. This map was generated with the cost d
