Abstract Silviculture is the art and science of managing forest stands to meet landowner goals and objectives; traditional examples of goals and objectives include managing for timber production, improved wildlife habitat, fuels reduction, and maintenance or improvement of forest health.

Abstract In this chapter, we summarize the ecology and conservation issues affecting greater ( Centrocercus urophasianus ) and Gunnison ( C . minimus ) sage-grouse, iconic and obligate species of rangelands in the sagebrush ( Artemisia spp.) biome in western North America. Greater sage-grouse are no

Recent research in Pennsylvanian-Permian strata of the Fountain Formation adjacent to the Front Range uplift and the Cutler Formation adjacent to the Uncompahgre uplift (Colorado) has resulted in new hypotheses about the climate and tectonics of the Ancestral Rocky Mountains. The Fountain and the Cu

Three species of Diuraphis in addition to the Russian wheat aphid , Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko), occur in western Colorado . Diuraphis (Holcaphis) tritici (Gillette), the western wheat aphid, and Diuraphis nodulus (Richards) were collected near Meeker (Rio Blanco County) in 1990. Both species were f

This chapter discusses the arc of Carolyn Merchant’s direct and indirect influences on work, particularly now forming a bridge between completed landscape history of Point Reyes National Seashore here in northern California, and developing a new focus on the history of the Rocky Mountain Biological

Gilbert’s studies of underground water were overshadowed by his magnificent reports on geologic structure and landforms. In fact, his 1896 publication on the underground water of the Arkansas Valley in eastern Colorado was called by W. M. Davis “for the most part a straightforward geological account

Fifty years ago, riparian habitats were not recognized for their extensive and critical contributions to wildlife and the ecosystem function of watersheds. This changed as riparian values were identified and documented, and the science of riparian ecology developed steadily. Papers in this volume ra

Abstract We propose that many Tertiary man to orebodies typical of Leadville and adjacent districts of Central Colorado (northern Sawatch range and Mosquito range) are modifications to pre-existing mineralized paleokarst cave systems (Tschauder and Landis, 1985; Landis and Tschauder, 1985). Major ka

Abstract The carbonatite complex at Iron Hill is located southeast of the town of Powderhorn along Cebolla Creek, Deldorado Creek, and Beaver Creek in Gunnison County, Colorado. To reach the complex, travel 9 mi (14.5 km)west of Gunnison on U.S. 50 to the intersection with Colorado 149, turn south o
