Kinetics Data of Iron(II), Manganese(II), Dissolved Organic Carbon and Nitrate from Batch Incubation Experiments Using Hyporheic Sediments from the East River Watershed, Colorado.
Hyporheic zones act as critical ecological links between terrestrial and aquatic systems where redox-sensitive metals of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) significantly impact nutrient cycling and water quality. In order to understand the production, release and speciation of Fe(II) and Mn(II) in groundw
Life histories of the perennial geophyte Erythronium grandiflorum (Liliaceae) in Colorado subalpine transplant garden from annual measurements, 1991 onward
In an outdoor garden at Irwin, Colorado, we established glacier lily plants in open-bottomed PVC pots that protected them from gopher attack. The initial cohorts were excavated from field sites as mature corms of unknown age. Later cohorts were grown from seed, so their ages are known. Each spring s
Basic High-resolution Landcover Map for the Upper East River Domain
This is a landcover map derived from the 2018 NEON AOP dataset for the upper east river. 1=needle-leaf trees and shrubs 2=deciduous trees and shrubs 3=deciduous meadow and subshrub ( 0.5m) 4=bare rock, soil, gravel and asphalt 5=water 6=snow 7=buildings Source data includes NEON LiDAR and imaging sp
Quality-controlled and Gap-filled 1m Digital Elevation Model for the Upper East River Domain
This is a bare-earth digital elevation model from the 2018 NEON AOP dataset. Areas outside the boundaries of the Upper East River domain were filled with data interpolated from the 3m 2018 Airborne Snow Observatory DEM. The ASO DEM was harmonized with the NEON DEM and filtered to remove small pits a
Conifer water use patterns in the East River Watershed, Colorado US, based on stable water isotopes and cellulose isotopes. Space and Time Dynamics of Transpiration in the East River Watershed: Biotic and Abiotic Controls
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
Sub-Basin Delineation for the Upper East River, Colorado, United States
Upper East sub-basins are delineated as area contributing flow to SFA 2016 stream gage locations. Shapefile attributes include sub-basin ID, name, area (m2 and km2) and codes for spatial contributions to EBC and PH used by Carroll et al. (2018). Geospatial reference is UTM 1983 zone 13.

LiDAR collection in August 2015 over the East River Watershed, Colorado, USA
Airborne LiDAR data were acquired over the East River Watershed on June 8, 2015 to August 10, 2015. The area covered was approximately 4933 square kilometers with an average point density of 10-12 points per square meter to comply with USGS's QL1 standard. Additional products include the LiDAR point
Grand Mesa 2017-02-01 snow depth estimate
Elevation difference (snow depth estimate for exposed ground surfaces) between co-registered WorldView-3 optical stereo DSM products from 2016-09-25 (snow-off) and 2017-02-01 (snow-on). These are preliminary products from the Stereo2SWE workflow, used to derive snow depth estimates from time series

snowmelt
Data on first day of bare ground (snowmelt date, shown as day of year; 1 Jan = 1) from a long-term snow monitoring plot monitored by billy barr, near the mid-elevation study population described in the paper (The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory). snowmeltT1 refers to the date of melt in year t+
Avalanche Size increase resulting from tree removal and wind loading- a case study from central Colorado using Aval-1D
Ecosystems impacts of climate change: snowmelt timing, species diversity, and plant productivity
A 14 year warming experiment being conducted in a subalpine meadow has resulted in several physical changes, including advanced date of snowmelt, a decrease in soil moisture, and increased soil temperature in heated plots versus control plots. These microclimate changes have led to a shift in plant
Effects of snowmelt timing and neighbor density on the distribution of the high altitude plant, Potentilla diversifolia
Natural selection favors rapid reproductive phenology in Potentilla pulcherrima (Rosaceae) at opposite ends of a subalpine snowmelt gradient
Enhanced growth of sagebrush (<i>Artemisia tridentata</i>) in response to manipulated ecosystem warming
AbstractGlobal models project impending climate changes that could significantly alter plant species composition in ecosystems. Climate manipulation experiments provide an opportunity to investigate such effects. Here we describe and apply a method for extracting the age‐detrended growth rate of sag
