This dataset represents a 1/3 m resolution vegetation canopy height model for the upper East River Watershed in Western Colorado. Source datasets include August 2015 and August 2019 discrete-return LiDAR point clouds collected by Quantum Geospatial for terrain mapping purposes on behalf of the Color

This mosaic of visible to shortwave infrared (VSWIR) data was derived from the assignable asset NEON AOP radiance data that was collected by LBNL s Watershed Function SFA during the summer of 2018 (DOI: 10.15485/1617204). This atmospheric correction was completed to take into account site-specific t

This dataset is a gap-filled meteorological dataset (years 2011-2020) that includes modeled potential evapotranspiration from a station near the pumphouse on the East River (KCOMTCRE2 WeatherUnderground ) near the top of the ridge at the Pumphouse PLM wells. These datasets are useful as model inputs

The U.S. Geological Survey collected low-altitude airborne thermal infrared data and visual imagery via a multirotor, small unoccupied aircraft system deployed from the northern bank of Oh-be-joyful Creek and adjacent to the Peeler fault, approximately 6 kilometers northwest of the town of Crested B

Unlike the majority of small mammals and similar to other Marmotini, female reproduction in Marmota flaviventris was characterized by increased progesterone levels during lactation as well as gestation. Elevated levels of progesterone during lactation could be an important component of a feedback me

Emergence mass is highly correlated with immergence mass, but explains about 55% of the variation. There is a 2- fold difference in body mass among marmot species. Total mass loss during hibernation is correlated with immergence mass. All measures of mass loss are correlated with each other. Big spe

Experimental tools that enable manipulations of organisms at larger scales allow for comparisons of processes across multiple spatial scales and expand our ability to make predictions about ecological processes. We performed reach scale (i.e., 50 m2) manipulations of invertebrate communities in stre

Body size may influence both adult fecundity and the probability of survival through each life stage. Previous studies of burying beetles (Nicrophorus, Coleoptera: Silphidae) have revealed reproductive advantages for larger adults and the role of parental care in determining larval size and number.

We integrated two methods, experimental heating and observations across natural climate gradients, to elucidate both short‐ and long‐term climatic controls on ecosystem carbon storage and to investigate carbon‐cycle feedbacks to climate in montane meadows. A 10‐year heating experiment warmed and dri

Results suggest that butterflies are unlikely to be useful indicators of moth diversity at a local scale, phylogenetic relatedness is not a reliable criterion for selecting appropriate indicator taxa, and a habitat-based approach would more effectively conserve moth diversity in this landscape.
