Water Level Data from Wells PLM1 and PLM6 for the East River Watershed, Colorado
This dataset (Williams et al., 2020) contains the original un-QA/QC-ed water level data for PLM1 and PLM6 and has been obsoleted. The data contained within this dataset is not to be used. Refer to Faybishenko et al., 2022 (DOI: 10.15485/1866836) for the latest QA/QC-ed data available via ESS-DIVE.Th
Total metals, carbon, nitrogen & anion concentration data; Slate River & East River floodplains, Crested Butte, CO; May 2022-October 2022
This data package includes processed and undiluted measurements for metal, total carbon, total nitrogen, and anion concentrations from pore water (groundwater) and surface water samples from the Slate River and East River floodplains of Crested Butte, CO, focus field sites for the SLAC Floodplain Hy
Dissolved Oxygen and Temperature Data from the Hyporheic Zone of the East River Watershed July 2017 to October 2018
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is critical for aquatic ecosystems. Our focus is on the long-term DO dynamics in hyporheic zone of rivers, which are a function of both transport (hydrologic exchange between river and hyporheic zone) and uptake by biogeochemical reactions or respiration. The study site is the
Community-level flowering & fitness data across an elevational gradient, Rocky Mountain Biological Lab, 2021-2022
We collected data at three sites in Washington Gulch near the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL, Gothic, Colorado, USA) from June to August 2021 and 2022. RMBL is located in the East River valley of the West Elk mountains, approximately 10 kilometers from Crested Butte, Colorado. Study site
Radon Isotopes and Stable Water Isotopes from Coal Creek Watershed, Colorado (2021)
The radon isotope and stable water isotope data for Coal Creek Watershed, Colorado, consists of d2H, d18O, and 222Rn values from samples collected at 8 stream location along Coal Creek, samples from 7 groundwater springs within the watershed, and precipitation isotope samples collected by Next Gener
Snowpack Persistence Day of Year Standard Deviation (1993-2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of interannual variability in the day of year (i.e., "Julian Day") of the persistence of the seasonal snowpack. Specifically these are estimates of the first day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat, and OLI imagery starting in 1993. These
Snowpack Persistence Day of Year Mean (1993 - 2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of the mean day of year (i.e., "Julian Day") of the persistence of the seasonal snowpack from 1993 - 2022. Specifically these are estimates of the first day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat, and OLI imagery starting in 1993. These maps
Snowpack Onset Day of Year Standard Deviation (1993-2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of interannual variability in the day of year (i.e., "Julian Day") of the onset of the seasonal snowpack. Specifically these are estimates of the last day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat, and OLI imagery starting in 1993. To facilitate
Snowpack Onset Day of Year Mean (1993 - 2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of the mean day of year (i.e., "Julian Day") of the onset of the seasonal snowpack. Specifically these are estimates of the last day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat TM, ETM, and OLI imagery starting in 1993. To facilitate computation o
Snowpack Duration Standard Deviation (Water Year 1993 - 2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of interannual variability in the number of days of continuous seasonal snowpack from 1993 - 2022. This map is derived from estimates of the first and last day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat TM, ETM, and OLI imagery starting in 1993.
Snowpack Duration Mean (Water Year 1993 - 2022)
This dataset represents an estimate of the mean number of days of continuous seasonal snowpack from 1993 - 2022. This map is derived from estimates of the first and last day of bare ground derived from long-term time-series of Landsat TM, ETM, and OLI imagery starting in 1993. These maps combine mon
Return flows from beaver ponds enhance floodplain-to-river metals exchange in alluvial mountain catchments
River to floodplain hydrologic connectivity is strongly enhanced by beaver- (Castor canadensis) engineered channel water diversions. The hydroecological impacts are wide ranging and generally positive, however, the hydrogeochemical characteristics of beaver-induced flowpaths have not been thoroughly

Selenium Distribution for Soils Derived from Mancos Shale in Gunnison and Uncompahgre River Basins, West-Central Colorado
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for humans and animals and can be toxic when present in high concentrations in soil and water. Many soils in Gunnison and Uncompahgre River Basins in West-Central Colorado are formed from deposits derived mainly from weathered Mancos shale that have high c
Rural-to-Urban Water Transfers: Measuring Direct Foregone Benefits of Irrigation Water under Uncertain Water Supplies
Irrigation water from a southeastern Colorado county has been sold to distant municipalities. The county's junior water right delivered limited and uncertain water supplies which were used on relatively poor soils. The ability of water markets to allocate water to the highest-valued use was addresse

Environmental Focus Group Findings on Snodgrass
The Environmental Focus Group was asked to provide an opinion on the potential of ski area expansion onto Snodgrass Mountain. We considered the following potential environmental impacts, which were identified in environmental assessments of previous proposals: > > > > Use of East River water for sno
