Geologic mapping, characterization of geologic structures, and sampling for geochronology was completed in two areas of the northwestern Sangre de Cristo mountains from 2011 through 2017. This data release provides the raw analytical data, metadata and sample information for 20 zircon U-Pb age analy

This data release includes data collected from the Villa Grove helicopter magnetic survey in northern San Luis Valley and Poncha Pass region in south-central Colorado, USA. The survey area extends over the northern part of Great Sand Dunes National Park, Poncha Pass and vicinity, and into the southe

This release presents the GIS data (in GDB, shapefile, and e00 [coverage] formats) and metadata for a 1:24,000-scale geologic map of the Poncha Pass area in central Colorado. A cartographic version of the geologic map, including map unit descriptions, interpretative text, and accessory figures and t

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

This Laser ablation ICPMS U-Pb detrital zircon data set supports mapping and stratigraphic interpretations of the Upper Devonian Ignacio Formation in southwestern Colorado (Silverton area). All samples were collected from a measured stratigraphic section called "Sultan Creek South" located at 37.710

This dataset contains cross-section geometry and sediment-size distribution data collected in the fall of 2018 from Muddy Creek and North Fork Gunnison River below Paonia Reservoir, western Colorado. Six cross-sections were surveyed using Real-Time Kinematic Global Navigation Satellite System (RTK-G

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+

This is an Excel file containing one sheet with 23 columns. Each row represents the data and metadata for a single tissue sample from a single individual. Column 1: specifies the species; Column 2: species the individual ID (ID numbers repeat across species); Column 3: specifies the tissue; Column 4

Maintenance of genetic diversity is important for conserving species, especially those with fragmented habitats and/or ranges. In the absence of natural dispersal, translocation can be used to achieve this goal. However, the long-term impacts from translocation can be expensive and difficult to eval

This feature estimates the geographic extent of the sagebrush biome in the United States. It was created for the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agency's (WAFWA) Sagebrush Conservation Strategy publication as a visual for the schematic figures. This layer does not represent the realized dis

Data comprise measurements of spectral reflectance for quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) trees at a range of sites in southwestern Colorado near the town of Crested Butte. Spectra were measured in three different ways: hyperspectral measurements of leaves, hyperspectral measurements of bark

Burrowing mammals can be ecosystem engineers by increasing soil aeration and erosion and altering the structure of plant communities. Studies that characterize the constraints on the distributions of fossorial mammal disturbances to soil can help predict changes in ecosystem engineering under future

Coal Creek can come back to life, with fish once more in residence, after a major restoration job. The project, already underway, is expected to take less than three years to complete. It is a major commitment by AMAX Inc. as the company explores the possibility of opening a molybdenum mine at Mt. E

What ig the meaning of a balanced community? In the short-run a com- munity never really seems to be in balance. Some parts or sectors of the community's economy are growing bigger, or faster, or changing, or declining more rapidly than the others. In turn and as a result, other aspects of the commu
