This map shows areas of anomalous surface temperature in Alamosa and Saguache Counties identified from ASTER thermal data and spatial based insolation model. The temperature is calculated using the Emissivity Normalization Algorithm that separate temperature from emissivity. The incoming solar radia

This map shows areas of anomalous surface temperature in northern Saguache Counties identified from ASTER and LANDSAT thermal data and spatial based insolation model. The temperature for the ASTER data was calculated using the Emissivity Normalization Algorithm that separate temperature from emissiv

Background: Medical devices are used widely for virtually every disease and condition. Although devices are subject to regulation, the number of recalls, the clinical data requirements for regulation and the impact on patient safety are poorly understood. Methods: The authors defined a device using

Aeromagnetic and aeroradiometric data were collected along flight lines by instruments in an aircraft that recorded magnetic-field and radiometric values and locations. The magnetic data set presents latitude, longitude, altitude, and magnetic-field values. Geologic symbols or codes are also include

Multiple unlinked genetic loci often provide a more comprehensive picture of evolutionary history than any single gene can, but analyzing multigene data presents particular challenges. Differing rates and patterns of nucleotide substitution, combined with the limited information available in any dat

We conducted a phylogenetic study of pygopodid lizards, a group of 38 species endemic to Australia and New Guinea, with two major goals:to reconstruct a taxonomically complete and robustly supported phylogeny for the group and to use this information to gain insights into the tempo, mode, and timing

The Pacific Ecoinformatics and Computational Ecology Lab (PEaCE Lab) is a Berkeley, California-based non-profit research institute founded in January 2004 to promote awareness of ecological interdependence through research, development and education related to ecoinformatics and computational ecolog

Numerous mountain watersheds in the Colorado Mineral Belt (CMB) are impacted by acid rock drainage (ARD) and acid mine drainage (AMD), which mobilize metals and rare earth elements (REEs) into surface waters. In the upper Roaring Fork watershed near Independence Pass, natural ARD from a highly miner

Locations: Coal Creek, which serves as the drinking water source for the town of Crested Butte, CO, receives both acid mine and acid rock drainage as a result of legacy mining and fractured porphyry networks, respectively. It has a Koppen climate class of Dfc, aka continental subarctic. Local ecolog

The survey and research work conducted at Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Recreation Area and Curecanti Recreation Area are clear examples of how meagre beginnings can develop into a fruitful, long-range program designed on the one hand to meet National Park Service management needs, and on th

Mitigative archeological investigations were conducted in 1983 at the southern end of the important Elk Creek site, 5GN204/205, within Curecanti National Recreation Area prior to construction of a park apartment complex. That portion of the site extended onto a rocky promontory overlooking Blue Mesa

Coal Creek (CC) is a high-elevation, headwater tributary to the Upper Colorado Basin located in the Ruby-Anthracite Range in the central Colorado Rocky Mountains. The CC watershed is 53 km2 in area and ranges in elevation from 2712 to 3668 meters. CC originates near Lake Irwin and enters the Slate R
