The San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado have long been recognized as a site of exceptionally voluminous mid-Tertiary volcanism, including at least 24 major ignimbrite sheets (each 150-5,000 km3) and associated caldera structures active at 33-23 Ma. More recent volcanologic and petrologic stu

The Upper Colorado River Basin has a drainage area of about 113,500 square miles in western Colorado, eastern Utah, southwestern Wyoming, northeastern Arizona, and northwestern New Mexico. In the 1980?s and 1990?s, the Upper Colorado River Basin was a study area under of the U.S. Geological Survey's

Polyphenisms, alternative morphs produced through plasticity, can reveal the evolutionary and ecological processes that initiate and maintain diversity within populations. We examined lifetime fitness consequences of two morphs in a polyphenic population of Arizona Tiger Salamanders using a 27-year

The Homestake Reservoir 7.5' quadrangle lies at the northwestern end of the Upper Arkansas Valley, and headwaters of the Arkansas River, and the Roaring Fork, Fryingpan, and Eagle Rivers of the Colorado River system. The quadrangle lies within tectonic provinces of the 1.4 Ga Picuris Orogeny, the la

This data package contains hydrologic modeling input and output files for the East River (ER_PRMS.zip) and Copper Creek (CC_GSFLOW.zip) for water years 1987 to 2018. These data were used to generate simulated results published in Geophysical Research Letters (Carroll et al., 2019) describing the imp

This data package provides data on the natural abundance isotopes of nitrate from various sources, including porewater, stream, and precipitation. The overall purpose of this data package is to complement additional data streams for nitrogen cycling metrics (e.g., riverine inorganic and organic nitr

This dataset includes measured data used for developing hybrid-predictive-modeling (HPM) approach and simulated evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration data across several Fluxnet sites, SNOTEL sites and East River locations (Chen et al., 2020 in review). Fluxnet sites considered in this study

The data package contains model input and output file for the East River watershed (85 km2) located in the headwaters of the Colorado River. The model is the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Precipitation-Modeling Runoff System (PRMS) for the historical, or baseline, condition (1987-2019) to assess the

This dataset captures the difference in concentration over the difference in discharge across upper and lower reaches of the East River watershed for 2015 and 2016 water years. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, U

The Dakota Sandstone (Cretaceous) in northeastern New Mexico is subdivided i to 3 intervals (Jacka and Brand, 1973). The lower interval is a braided al luvial sheet composed of fine- to medium-grained, cross-stratified sandstone with conglomerate lenses. The middle interval represents a meander -bel

A widespread volcanic field covered most of the Southern Rocky Mountains in middle Tertiary time, 40 to 25 m.y. ago (approximately Oligocene time). This field covered an erosion surface that beveled structures formed during the Laramide orogeny in Late Cretaceous and early Tertiary time. The source

Miocene-Pliocene history is recorded in south-central Colorado by sediments deposited in subsiding basins bounded by fault-block mountains and by faulted sedimentary and volcanic deposits lying on a channeled late Eocene erosion surface of regional extent. The San Luis Valley and upper Arkansas Vall

Upper Cenozoic terrestrial basin-fill sedimentary and basic volcanic rocks are common in the 20,700 km2 Basalt area, which includes parts of the Gore, Sawatch, and southern Park Ranges, Elk Mountains, Grand Mesa, and White River Plateau. Principally on the basis of whole-rock K-Ar ages from basalt f
