SUMMA model output for a single site in the East River Watershed, Colorado using downscaled forcings from the WUS-D3 dataset of downscaled CMIP6 GCMS. For a full description, see .

UAV flights were conducted between August 26, 2024, and September 1, 2024, at and around the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory in the East River Valley, Gothic, Colorado, USA (38°57′ N, 106°59′ W; approximately 2900 m elevation). The study area included marmot colonies located in two core zones,

The overwhelming majority of research on wild bumble bees has focused on the social colony stage. Nest-founding queens in the early season are difficult to study because incipient nests are challenging to find in the wild, and the foundress queen's flight period is very short relative to the entire

File: Peng_et_al._20206.zip Description: There are three folders here. The Data folder contains the raw specimen phenology data and the RMBL phenology data. The Analyses folder contains the data frames used to build the linear mixed-effects models. The Codes folder contains R codes

This dataset represents field observations of vegetation samples collected as part of the Colorado Headwaters Ecological Spectroscopy Study (CHESS) during June and July of 2025. Samples were collected in the field using tablet computers and digital forms, with target data differing by sample type (i

Surface grids of the snow, ground, and vegetation surfaces derived from the six terrestrial scanning lidars that were deployed on three flux towers near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The data were collected to support the analysis of snow depth, snow surface var

This dataset contains Leaf Area Index (LAI) measurements made as part of the Colorado Headwaters Ecological Spectroscopy Study (CHESS) during June and July of 2025. Data were collected in the Upper Gunnison Basin, Colorado, across three study domains: the Upper East River (CRBU), Almont Triangle (AL

Raw point clouds from the terrestrial scanning lidar #1 (L1) that was deployed on the upwind east flux tower near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The raw point clouds provide information about the distribution of blowing snow particles in the air in addition to va

Raw point clouds from the terrestrial scanning lidar #2 (L2) that was deployed on the upwind east flux tower near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The raw point clouds provide information about the distribution of blowing snow particles in the air in addition to va

Raw point clouds from the terrestrial scanning lidar #3 (L3) that was deployed on the upwind west flux tower near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The raw point clouds provide information about the distribution of blowing snow particles in the air in addition to va

Raw point clouds from the terrestrial scanning lidar #4 (L4) that was deployed on the upwind west flux tower near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The raw point clouds provide information about the distribution of blowing snow particles in the air in addition to va

Raw point clouds from the terrestrial scanning lidar #6 (L6) that was deployed on the downwind flux tower near Crested Butte, Colorado for the SOS (Sublimation of Snow) campaign. The raw point clouds provide information about the distribution of blowing snow particles in the air in addition to valua

The main population of ~5000 threatened Gunnison sage-grouse (GUSG; Centrocercus minimus) in Colorado depends on sagebrush plants that are killed by wildfires, with recovery taking decades, so frequent fire is a threat, but did it occur historically? Early land surveys showed that the historical (pr

We use metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) to understand single-carbon (C1) compound-cycling-particularly methane-cycling-microorganisms in montane riparian floodplain sediments. We generated 1,233 MAGs (>50% completeness and n = 57). Methanogens, found only in deep, anoxic depths at SR, originate f
