At a former uranium mill site where tailings have been removed, prior work has determined several potential ongoing secondary uranium sources. These include locations with uranium sorbed to organic carbon, uranium in the unsaturated zone, and uranium associated with the presence of gypsum. To better

AbstractThe historical role of fire in sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) landscapes remains poorly understood, yet is important to inform management and conservation of obligate species such as the threatened Gunnison Sage‐grouse (GUSG; Centrocercus minimus). We reconstructed fire histories from tree

Report discussing a study on the Central City district and adjoining mining areas to determine the geology and economic importance of the uranium occurrences in the region.

Maternal characteristics, social dynamics, and environmental factors can all influence reproduction and survival and shape trade-offs that might arise between these components of fitness. Short-lived mammals like the golden-mantled ground squirrel (GMGS; Callospermophilus lateralis ) tend to maximiz

This paper consists of some of the results of a collecting trip made by the senior author to the Grand Mesa National Forest, Colorado, during the period of June 12 to July 20, 1930. Al? though the fungi here discussed represent only a small percentage of the total number of collections, it seems tha

AbstractIntroduction of seepage and deep percolation losses to the saline soils and aquifers, and the eventual return of these flows to the river system with their large salt loads, make the Grand Valley in Colorado one of the more significant salinity sources in the Upper Colorado River Basin. A st

Gunnison sage‐grouse Centrocercus minimus has declined from their historic range and recent monitoring has provided evidence that some populations are continuing to decline. The evaluation of long‐term, population‐specific survival rates is important to assess population stability, and is necessary

Shale bedrocks hold Earth’s largest carbon inventory. Although water is recognized for cycling elements through terrestrial environments, understanding how hydrology controls ancient rock carbon (Crock) release is limited. Here we measured depth- and season-dependent subsurface water fluxes and pore

Understanding the evolutionary processes that influence fitness is critical to pre- dicting species' responses to selection. Interactions among evolutionary processes including gene flow, drift and the strength of selection can lead to either local adap- tation or maladaptation, especially in hetero

Abstract. High resolution gridded datasets of meteorological variables are needed in order to resolve fine-scale hydrological gradients in complex mountainous terrain. Across the United States, the highest available spatial resolution of gridded datasets of daily meteorological records is approximat

How phenotypes are shaped by multilevel selection-the theoretical framework proposing natural selection occurs at more than one level of biological organization-is a classic debate in biology. Though social behaviours are a common theoretical example for multilevel selection, it is unknown if and ho

Abstract Mountainous watersheds are characterized by variability in functional traits, including vegetation, topography, geology, and geomorphology, which determine nitrogen (N) retention, and release. Coal Creek and East River are two contrasting catchments within the Upper Colorado River Basin tha

Abstract Cloud microphysical processes are an important facet of atmospheric modeling, as they can control the initiation and rates of snowfall. Thus, parameterizations of these processes have important implications for modeling seasonal snow accumulation. We conduct experiments with the Weather Res

Abstract High elevation and latitude ecosystems are experiencing high levels of anthropogenic atmospheric warming. Climate warming may directly change soil microbial activity and alter ecosystem carbon dynamics and productivity, but increasing evidence suggests these responses may depend on other bi

Individual plants can modify the microenvironment within their spatial neighborhood. However, the consequences of microenvironment modification for demography and species interactions remain unclear at the community scale. In a study of co‐occurring alpine plants, we 1) determined the extent of spec
