THE Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and conservation compliance provisions of the 1985 Food Security Act have had a dramatic impact in Colorado. As of May 1989, landowners in the state had enrolled more than 1.8 million acres in the CRP. Baca County, in southeastern Colorado, has the greatest num

Comparing soil pedons from a trail and a nearby equivalent undisturbed pedon allows for a field comparison of changes in soil morphology due to visitor use. The paired pedons technique applied to trails from the canyon rim to the river at the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Monument successful

Otero County, situated on the High Plains of eastern Colorado, typifies many rural agricultural counties. This article surveys its history, demography, and social economy during the period from its formation in 1889 to 1987. It compares the county's demographic changes with those of the state and pr

Abstract Where climate is seasonal, such as in high‐altitude ecosystems, the occurrence and activity patterns of insect pollinators may vary with the varying occurrence of floral resources. This high turnover of species occurrence and interactions may lead to changes in the structure and properties

Hunter harvest is a potential factor contributing to population declines of sage-grouse (Centrocercus spp.). As a result, wildlife agencies throughout western North America have set increasingly more conservative harvest regulations over the past 25 years to reduce or eliminate hunter success and co

Women, Crime and Justice is an expansive teaching tool, focused on the position of women in the criminal justice system, as victims, offenders, and professional agents working within it. In addition, Gunnison, Bernat and Goodstein consider how the law impacts upon distinctly gendered issues, with wo

Abstract Mountainous headwater streams are sustained by both snowmelt‐driven streamflow and groundwater discharge in the Upper Colorado River Basin. However, predicting headwater stream discharge magnitude and peak flow timing is challenging in mountainous terrains, where snowmelt rates vary with ve

The overwhelming majority of research on wild bumble bees has focused on the social colony stage. Nest-­founding queens in the early season are difficult to study because incipient nests are challenging to find in the wild and the foundress queen flight period is very short relative to the entire ne

Biological visual signals are often produced by complex interactions between light-absorbing and light-scattering structures, but for many signals, potential interactions between different light-interacting components have yet to be tested. Butterfly wings, for example, are thin enough that their tw
