Herbarium specimens reliably track plant phenological responses to climate change in understudied montane biomes
File: Peng_et_al._20206.zip Description: There are three folders here. The Data folder contains the raw specimen phenology data and the RMBL phenology data. The Analyses folder contains the data frames used to build the linear mixed-effects models. The Codes folder contains R codes
CHESS 2025: Field-collected vegetation attributes and site photos
This dataset represents field observations of vegetation samples collected as part of the Colorado Headwaters Ecological Spectroscopy Study (CHESS) during June and July of 2025. Samples were collected in the field using tablet computers and digital forms, with target data differing by sample type (i
Summer snowpatches as high alpine resource sources: assessing potential impacts of climate change
Individual differences do not influence flight initiation distance in yellow-bellied marmots (<i>Marmota flaviventris</i>)
Costs and benefits of an ant-membracid mutualism in the absence of predation

The foraging behavior of bees in response to the floral biology of <i>Frasera speciosa</i> (Gentianaceae)
Effect of case removal and increased nutrition on larval development, pupation, emergence time, and sexual selection in a caddisfly (Agrypnia deflata, order Trichoptera)

Heterospecific prey and trophic polyphenism in larval tiger salamanders
Polyphenisms (environmentally cued polymorphisms) are ubiquitous, yet the specific proximate mechanisms producing alternative morphs are generally not well known. We tested hypotheses for the role of large heterospecific prey in the cannibalistic polyphenism within larval tiger salamanders, Ambystom
Adaptation at specific loci. VII. Natural selection, dispersal and the diversity of molecular-functional variation patterns among butterfly species complexes (<i>Colias</i>: Lepidoptera, Pieridae)
AbstractNatural genetic variants at the phosphoglucose isomerase, PGI, gene differ in spatial patterning of their polymorphism among species complexes ofColiasbutterflies in North America. In both lowland and alpine complexes, molecular–functional properties of the polymorphic genotypes can be used
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
Measuring dispersal in a metapopulation using stable isotope enrichment: high rates of sex-biased disperal between patches in a mayfly population
Dispersal affects a wide array of ecological and evolutionary processes, but has been difficult to estimate empirically. A 15 Nitrogen stable isotope enrichment technique was used to passively mark all developing Callibaetis ferrugineus hageni (Eaton) mayfly larvae in a beaver pond that had previous
Reproductive isolation and hybrid pollen disadvantage in <i>Ipomopsis</i>
Abstract One cause of reproductive isolation is gamete competition, in which conspecific pollen has an advantage over heterospecific pollen in siring seeds, thereby decreasing the formation of F1 hybrids. Analogous pollen interactions between hybrid pollen and conspecific pollen can contribute to po
