Natural abundance nitrate isotopes from Rifle and the East River Watershed, Colorado
This data package provides data on the natural abundance isotopes of nitrate from various sources, including porewater, stream, and precipitation. The overall purpose of this data package is to complement additional data streams for nitrogen cycling metrics (e.g., riverine inorganic and organic nitr
Hybrid predictive modeling approach simulated evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration data
This dataset includes measured data used for developing hybrid-predictive-modeling (HPM) approach and simulated evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration data across several Fluxnet sites, SNOTEL sites and East River locations (Chen et al., 2020 in review). Fluxnet sites considered in this study
Hydrologic Model Files (PRMS) for Historical Conditions in the East River Watershed, Colorado between 1987-2019
The data package contains model input and output file for the East River watershed (85 km2) located in the headwaters of the Colorado River. The model is the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Precipitation-Modeling Runoff System (PRMS) for the historical, or baseline, condition (1987-2019) to assess the
Differential concentration discharge for the upper and lower reaches of the East River Watershed, Colorado
This dataset captures the difference in concentration over the difference in discharge across upper and lower reaches of the East River watershed for 2015 and 2016 water years. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, U

Conifer water use patterns in the East River Watershed, Colorado US, based on stable water isotopes and cellulose isotopes
This data package contains a series of datasets aimed at understanding the seasonal origins of water used by the dominant conifer species, Abies lasiocarpa and Picea engelmannii, in the East River Watershed. There is a distinct difference in the stable isotopic ratio of summer rain and snowpack and
Water Level Data from Wells PLM1 and PLM6 for the East River Watershed, Colorado
This data set contains water level data for the PLM1 and PLM6 wells. PLM1 and PLM6 are location identifiers used by the Watershed Function SFA project for two groundwater monitoring wells along an elevation gradient located along the lower montane life zone of a hillslope near the Pumphouse location

A single climate driver has direct and indirect effects on insect population dynamics
Carol L. Boggs1,2* and David W. Weather drives population dynamics directly, through effects on vital rates, or indirectly, through effects on the Inouye1,3 populationÕs competitors, predators or prey and thence on vital rates. Indirect effects may include non-additive 1 Rocky Mountain Biological in
Trends in Western U.S. Snowpack and Related Upper Colorado River Basin Streamflow1
Miller, W. Paul and Thomas C. Piechota, 2011. Trends in Western U.S. Snowpack and Related Upper Colorado River Basin Streamflow. Journal of the American Water Resources Association (JAWRA) 47(6):1197–1210. DOI: 10.1111/j.1752-1688.2011.00565.x Abstract: Water resource managers in the Western United
The effects of phenology on <i>Delphinium nuttallianum</i>
The phenology of plants in the alpine environment of the Rocky Mountains is heavily dependent on snowmelt time (Inouye and McGuire 1991, Thomson 2010). In this study we have manipulated the timing of snowmelt in order to change the phenology of Delphinium nuttallianum in the subalpine environment of
Effects of frost on wildflowers: an unexpected consequence of climate change
Seasonal change in a pollinator community and the maintenance of style length variation in Mertensia fusiformis (Boraginaceae)
Seasonal change in pollinator-mediated selection on style length may help maintain variation in this trait in M. fusiformis, but adaptation to local flowering time is not apparent. The prevalence of short styles in these populations requires further explanation.
