Data from: Effects of increased flight on the energetics and life history of the butterfly Speyeria mormonia
Movement uses resources that may otherwise be allocated to somatic maintenance or reproduction. How does increased energy expenditure affect resource allocation? Using the butterfly Speyeria mormonia, we tested whether experimentally increased flight affects fecundity, lifespan or flight capacity. W
Data from: Spatiotemporal fire dynamics in mixed-conifer and aspen forests in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado, USA
Mixed-severity fire regimes may be the most extensive yet poorly understood fire regimes of western North America. Understanding their long-term spatiotemporal dynamics is central to debates regarding altered fire regimes and the need for restoration in the context of changing climate and nearly a c
Caloric content of Rocky Mountain subalpine and Alpine Plants
Caloric equivalents for aboveground parts of Rocky Mountain subalpine and alpine herbaceous plants averaged 4,859 cal/g ash-free oven-dry weight. Ash content averaged 9.8% for 17 forbs. Both caloric content and ash content ranged higher than values for alpine species from New Hampshire.
Analysis of morphological variation as a function of altitude in populations of <i>Thlaspi alpestre</i> L
Mammalian Fauna of two sub-alpine habitats
Study of the mammal fauna of a meadow-aspen ecotone on a hill overlooking the kettle ponds
Thermoregulation and water requirements in semiarid and montane populations of the least chipmunk, Eutamias minimus. III. Acclimatization at a high ambient temperature
Adaptation of E. minimus to the semiarid habitat has involved changes in response to acute and chronic heat and water stress which increase the time the chipmunks can survive exposures to high ambient temperature, regardless of water availability.
