Long-term changes in flowering synchrony reflect climatic changes across an elevational gradient
These are the data with the accompanying R code used in the article Long-term changes in flowering synchrony reflect climatic changes across an elevational gradient , by Fisogni A, de Manincor N, Bertelsen CD, and Rafferty NE. We provide the raw data on flowering phenology, temperature and precipita
Sensor-based phenology from snowmelt experiment gradient, East River, Colorado, 2017 to 2020
The timing of snowmelt is a critical cue for the initiation of growth in mountain meadow ecosystems and can also impact the duration and magnitude of plant production. High frequency observations of species-level phenology are time consuming and require a high degree of expertise, and publicly avail
Surface soil temperature and water content from warming experiment located at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, Colorado, 2015 to 2019
This data package consists of soil temperature and soil water content sensor data from the warming experiment near the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Data range is from summer 2015 to summer 2019, when the warming manipulation was terminated. The location of the warming experiment is in the u
Microclimate observations associated with snowmelt experiment gradient sites, East River, Colorado, 2017 to 2020
The timing of snowmelt in mountain systems is a main driver of vegetation phenology and production, as well as recharge of soil moisture and ground water. Decreases in maximum snowpack and warmer spring temperatures have led to a higher frequency of early snowmelt. This study combines a natural elev

World-building in urban fantasy
This thesis studies the world-building elements of Urban Fantasy, a genre of popular fiction that emerged in the early 1980’s. I examine the genre as a model-variant of the fantastic that uses elements of traditional Fantasy, Science-Fiction, and the Gothic to construct a believable storyworld inhab
Vail, Colorado, as a Voluntary Culture Region
Abstract. Geographers considering the subjects of tourism and tourist destinations have by in large focused on inherent environmental and economic impacts. Culturally, areas of leisure and recreation, termed "pleasuring places" by Wilbur Zelinsky, are often dismissed as artificial and being devoid o

Behavioral ecology of silver prospectors in late 19th century Gothic, Colorado: migration, group formation and central place foraging
Reciprocal benefits in a plant-pollinator mutualism
Bees feed almost exclusively on nectar and pollen from flowers. However, little is known about how food availability limits bee populations. To gain insights into the potential for food limitation within subalpine bumble bee populations, I examined bee foraging distances and the relationship between
Bottom-up effects of nutrient enrichment on plants, pollinators, and their interactions
Nutrients play fundamental roles in biological systems, affecting plant growth and

Aspen heart rot fungus (<i>Phellinus tremulae</i>) distribution in aspen forests in relation to open meadows: implications for red-naped sapsucker (<i>Sphyrapicus nuchalis</i>) nesting habitat
Red-naped sapsuckers (Sphyrapicus nuchalis) are an integral part of the aspen (Populus tremuloides) ecosystem in the montane western U.S. They are a double keystone species, providing both shelter and nutrients to a variety of organisms within the system. Numerous studies have documented the importa
Time budget of yellow-bellied marmots at high and low elevations
Time budgets of the yellow-bellied marmot (Marmota flaviventris) were created observing two different localities within the Rocky Mountains of Colorado at different elevations (Cement Creek, 2641m and North Picnic, 2900m). Six behaviors (foraging, sitting/lying, locomotion (moving from place to plac
