Dynamics of male inconstancy in <i> Valeriana edulis </i> in the abiotic and mating environment
This study investigated inconstancy in the sex-expression of male flowers across populations of Edible Valerian (Valeriana edulis) as well as potential drivers of its variation. Though Valeriana edulis is dioecious (individuals typically have separate sexes), plants showing dominant male sex-express

The effects of the invasive plant <i>Linaria vulgaris</i> on native plant fitness and pollinator behavior
The invasion of the European perennial Linaria vulgaris to the alpine environment of Colorado may lead to competition for natural resources, space, and pollinators with native species. I measured the effects on fitness of L. vulgaris on three plant species native to Colorado, using both hand-pollina

The effects of recreational trail use on small mammal species richness and abundance
RMBL is a prominent field station in Colorado containing native plants and animals of Western Colorado. The recreational trails near the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) are an important resource for the community. They generate touristic income for the surrounding cities and are an impor
Barriers to Gene Flow across a Light Gradient in Cardamine cordifolia.
Ecotypic variation can be driven by a disproportionate balance between selective pressures and gene flow. If the strength of selection is weak relative to the level of gene flow, genetic variation will likely be homogenized among populations. However, in the absence or severe limitation of gene flow

Distant seas might predict Colorado River droughts
Increased aggression among <i>Asynarchus nigriculus</i> caddisfly larvae in a rapidly drying environment
Global climate change will likely result in warmer, dryer environments and influence the behavior and development of a number of species. Asynarchus nigriculus is a species of caddisfly whose larval stage lives exclusively in temporary ponds where they develop synchronously and quickly before the po
