Stratigraphic and geochemical implications on the petroleum potential of the lower Mancos Group (Niobrara), Piceance Basin, Colorado
Comparing Longworth live traps to hair tubes for describing small mammal communities
Ecologists are always interested in studying populations of a certain area. There are many reasons for this, but two reasons include to see the change in distribution over time and because it can help tell about interactions between species. A traditional way of studying small mammal populations tha

Social capital and socio-cultural sustainability: mountain resort tourism and the community of Steamboat Springs
Mountain resort tourism, in particular ski tourism, has brought about significant change to many alpine communities within North America. Providing an alternative to past industries such as ranching, agriculture, mining, and logging, tourism has been heralded by some as a panacea for the revitalisat

Trophic transfer of contaminants in tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) nesting near Lake Calumet, Illinois
Tree swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) nestlings, eggs, and diet and sediment grab samples were used to quantify risks of exposure to15 trace elements, 31 polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, 15 polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners and 13 organochlorine pesticides in the Calumet area of n
Wildfire and development : why stronger links to land-use planning are needed to save lives, protect property, and minimize economic risk
Exploding growth along the Colorado Front Range has expanded the wildland-urban interface-the area where homes and vegetation mix.This area, known as the WUI, is at high risk of wildfires.Wildfire risk is based on both natural conditions, such as invasive species and climate change, and human develo

Factors influencing floral traits in Rocky Mountain meadows: competition, environmental filtering, and phylogeny
There is an incredible diversity of floral morphologies and colors within plant communities of the southwestern, Rocky Mountains. However, little research has been done to quantify exactly how diverse these communities are, and to assess which ecological and phylogenetic processes are structuring th
Moss and vascular plant cover across elevational gradients in a changing alpine climate
Mosses are foundational members of alpine plant communities but are often excluded from vegetation monitoring. In this study, I surveyed moss and vascular plant cover across five alpine ridges near Gothic, Colorado to understand how environmental variables shape moss abundance. I analyzed vegetation
