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
Geochemical analyses of surface water, groundwater and springs surrounding Mount Emmons near Crested Butte, Colorado (ver. 2.0, September 2020)
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (DRMS), and Coal Creek Watershed Coalition (CCWC) working independently, have intermittently collected samples of surface- and groundwater and springs around Mount Emmons, near Crested Butte, Colorado. This data r
Plant census and microenvironment dataset from Mt. Baldy, Colorado, USA, 2014-2017
The data comprise a long-term study of alpine plant community dynamics in the Gunnison National Forest of Colorado. The data comprise annual census data for all plants (including seedlings) in each of 50 2x2m plots, including information on size, reproduction, life stage, and mortality, with all pla
Natural abundance nitrate isotopes from Rifle and the East River Watershed, Colorado
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
Conifer water use patterns in the East River Watershed, Colorado US, based on stable water isotopes and cellulose isotopes
This data package contains a series of datasets aimed at understanding the seasonal origins of water used by the dominant conifer species, Abies lasiocarpa and Picea engelmannii, in the East River Watershed. There is a distinct difference in the stable isotopic ratio of summer rain and snowpack and

Real and experimental ecosystem warming: interacting effects on snowmelt, plant community composition and carbon storage in a Rocky Mountain subalpine meadow
A 22 year warming experiment at Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory has elucidated short term (15 year) responses in plant community and soil organic carbon to artificial warming. This summer’s research evaluates long-term (>15 year) changes and, because of recent climate change effects, the releva
How do above and belowground grass-fungus symbioses change over elevational gradients in mountainous Colorado?
Plants and fungi are closely associated and likely have been since terrestrial ecosystems were first inhabited. These symbiotic relationships have taken two main forms: internal aboveground symbionts known as endophytes, and belowground root associated fungi, the most common of which are mycorrhizal
Responses of soil and water chemistry to mountain pine beetle induced tree mortality in Grand County, Colorado, USA
Effects of species composition change under experimental warming on soil microclimate in a montane meadow
The results of a long-term experimental warming study, in a montane meadow in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, have shown that Artemisia tridentata (Common Sagebrush) is likely to increase in abundance under climate change, as perennial forb species decrease in abundance. This change in species comp
