This data package comprises analytical results and metadata from stream and groundwater samples collected from the Slate River, East River, Trail Creek, and their respective floodplains. This dataset contains five files: (1) a samples file (2023_SFA_Field_samples.csv) that contains site information;

The data here are associated with Quaternary Research manuscript Latest Pleistocene glacial chronology and paleoclimate reconstruction for the East River watershed, Colorado, USA and include data associated with cosmogenic exposure and depth profile dating as well as glacier-climate numerical modeli

AbstractMaintenance of genetic diversity is important for conserving species, especially those with fragmented habitats or ranges. In the absence of natural dispersal, translocation can be used to achieve this goal, although the success of translocation can be difficult to measure. Here we evaluate

Evolutionary traps arise when organisms use novel, low-quality or even lethal resources based on previously reliable cues. Persistence of such maladaptive interactions depends not only on how individuals locate important resources, such as host plants, but also the mechanisms underlying poor perform

Flowering phenology marks the transition from vegetative growth to reproduction and exposes plants to seasonally varying selective environments during flowering. Life-history trade- offs between time and size at reproduction suggest that early-flowering species should generally be smaller than late-

Polyphenisms-alternative morphs produced through plasticity-can reveal the evolutionary and ecological processes that initiate and maintain diversity within populations. We examined lifetime fitness consequences of two morphs in a polyphenic population of Arizona tiger salamanders using a 27-year da

Heritable genetic variation is necessary for populations to evolve in response to anthropogenic climate change. However, antagonistic genetic correlations among traits may constrain the rate of adaptation, even if substantial genetic variation exists. We examine potential genetic responses to select

The current understanding of magmatic-hydrothermal processes resulting in the formation of porphyry and epithermal deposits is based on case studies that focused on deposits such as Santa Rita porphyry copper deposit in New Mexico, the Refugio porphyry gold deposit in Chile, and the Summitville high

The aboveground primary productivity within each of four areas, differing in length of the snow-free season, was determined in a high subalpine (3380 m) herbaceous meadow in Colorado. Net productivity, minus losses to herbivores, ranged from 114 g -m™ - yr“ in the area with the shortest snow-free pe

Maintaining high levels of self-fertilization within a population increases homozygosity, exposes deleterious alleles, and may cause inbreeding depression. Yet, many species of flowering plants have evolved to self-fertilize a majority of the time. Often, self-fertilization is favored over outcrossi

Abiotic and biotic factors influence plant fitness by altering the physical environment and resource availability. According to the stress gradient hypothesis, increasing physical stress in an environment increases positive plant-plant interactions and decreases negative interspecies interactions. I

Bumble bees (​Bombus ​spp.) are eusocial insects that typically consist of three castes, with each caste emerging and foraging at different times. Bumble bee queens and workers differ morphologically in several measurable traits, but morphological variation within species and within caste has not be

AbstractSenescence is a highly variable process that comprises both age‐dependent and state‐dependent components and can be greatly affected by environmental conditions. However, few studies have quantified the magnitude of age‐dependent and state‐dependent senescence in key life‐history traits acro

AbstractHuman activities have substantially increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition in ecosystems worldwide, often leading to higher plant quality for herbivores and greater herbivory. Predators frequently suppress herbivores and indirectly benefit plants via “trophic cascades”, and the streng

The increase in corolla length provides a rare example of a match between predicted and observed evolution of a plant trait in natural populations. The clinal properties are consistent with the hypothesis that habitat-mediated divergent selection on vegetative traits and pollinator-mediated selectio
