Data from: Flying by night: Comparing nocturnal pollinator networks over time in the Colorado Rocky Mountains
Because pollen-transport networks tend to vary widely over short periods of time but remain consistent over longer periods of time, it is important to account for study length when characterizing pollen-transport network structure. The study of nocturnal pollen-transport networks independently from
hmworsham/er-forest-structure: Abiotic influences on continuous conifer forest structure across a subalpine watershed: RSE review archive
This release archives the code base for the manuscript Worsham et al., "Abiotic influences on continuous conifer forest structure across a subalpine watershed," submitted to Remote Sensing of Environment on July 18, 2024. This archive enables reviewers to view and access analytical code "as-is", i.e
Data from: A multi-year case study highlighting the influence of hydrological conditions on epidemic dynamics in a natural plant pathosystem
The scale of influence of hydrological and thermal conditions on disease remains uncertain for most wild plant pathosystems, thus restricting our ability to predict the impacts of climate change. Analysis of the spatiotemporal spread of a fungal rust pathogen throughout four naturally occurring flax
Recent Upper Colorado River Streamflow Declines Driven by Loss of Spring Precipitation
The dataset accompanying the manuscript titled "Recent Upper Colorado River Streamflow Declines Driven by Loss of Spring Precipitation" provides comprehensive information on streamflow patterns in the Colorado River since 2000. The dataset is needed to run the analysis available on GitHub available
Decomposing an elevational gradient in predation by insectivorous birds
Insectivorous birds have ecologically important effects on prey abundance, behavior, and evolution, and through top-down control birds indirectly reduce herbivory and promote plant growth. While several studies sought to characterize biogeographic patterns in top-down control by birds, variation in
Upper Colorado River Basin: Monitoring sites and water chemistry data used to develop a specific conductance - salinity proxy model
Salinity levels in streams and tributaries of the Colorado River Basin have been a major concern for years. Recently, the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) program expanded stream monitoring networks including the number of sites where continuous
Argon ages near Parker, AZ, and Needles, CA
Reported here are argon age data for samples collected to better understand lower Colorado River corridor landscape evolution, the history of the Colorado River, and define the age of geologic units being mapped. Samples of basalts, ashes, and sand were collected in the Cactus Plain southeast of Par
Laboratory Optical Measurements Collected for Surface Water Samples Collected within Fraser River in the Upper Colorado River Basin from September 2021 through August 2023
Optical spectra reported here are collected from 17 surface water sampling sites within the Fraser River, a headwaters drainage of the Upper Colorado River Basin in the central western United States. The sample collection was conducted as part of the partnership between the United States Geological
The NOAA NCEI Global Marine Microplastics Data Collection (1972-present)
Microplastics (i.e., plastics measuring less than 5mm) pollution is a growing problem affecting coastal communities, marine ecosystems, aquatic life, and human health. The widespread occurrence of marine microplastics, and the need to curb its threats, require expansive, and continuous monitoring. W
Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas Database Version 2024 (SOCATv2024) (NCEI Accession 0293257)
The ocean absorbs one quarter of the global CO2 emissions from human activity. The community-led Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (www.socat.info) is key for the quantification of ocean CO2 uptake and its variation, now and in the future. SOCAT version 2024 has quality-controlled in situ surface ocean fCO2 (

SPLASH Field Study; Snow-level Radar FMCW Moments at Brush Creek, Colorado, 2021-12-20 to 2023-09-05 (NCEI Accession 0289129)
From fall 2021 through summer 2023, NOAA and research partners conducted a field study (SPLASH - the Study of Precipitation, the Lower Atmosphere and Surface for Hydrometeorology). This field study established a state-of-the-art observing network in the East River watershed of the Colorado mountains

Survival of Gunnison sage‐grouse <i>Centrocercus minimus</i> in Colorado, USA
Gunnison sage‐grouse Centrocercus minimus has declined from their historic range and recent monitoring has provided evidence that some populations are continuing to decline. The evaluation of long‐term, population‐specific survival rates is important to assess population stability, and is necessary
Nest Success of Gunnison Sage-Grouse in Colorado, USA
Gunnison Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus minimus) is a species of concern for which little demographic information exists. To help fill this information gap, we investigated factors affecting nest success in two populations of Gunnison Sage-Grouse. We assessed the relative effects of (1) vegetation charac
