SPLASH Field Study; Atmospheric Surface Flux Station #30 measurements (level 2 Processed), Sep2021-Jul2023 (NCEI Accession 0303959)
Processed (Level 2) measurements and derived variables from the Atmospheric Surface Flux Station #30 (ASFS-30) deployed at the Kettle Ponds Annex site (38°56.3686' N, 106°58.1781' W) during the Study of Precipitation, the Lower Atmosphere, and Surface for Hydrometeorology (SPLASH) campaign near Goth
Plant community data from Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (CO, USA) transplant experiment 2017-2023
These two datasets include plant community data from the transplant experiment at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. We conducted this experiment at three sites near the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL, Gothic, Colorado, USA) from June to September 2017-2023. The dataset "Abundance

Floral dimorphism, pollination, and self-fertilization in gynodioecious <i>Geranium richardsonii</i> (Geraniaceae)
The selective maintenance of gynodioecy depends on the relative fitness of the male‐sterile (female) and hermaphroditic morphs. Females may compensate for their loss of male fitness by reallocating resources from male function (pollen production and pollinator attraction) to female function (seeds a
Molecular-functional studies of adaptive genetic variation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes
▪ Abstract Knowledge of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms is essential to the study of molecular evolution. Their common ancestry mandates that their molecular functions share many aspects of adaptation and constraint, yet their differences in size, ploidy, and structural complexity also giv
Avoiding paradigm-based limits to knowledge of evolution
The “Modern Synthesis” brought paleontology and systematics together with population genetics to endorse Darwin’s insights and to lay the foundation of steady progress in understanding.
Outbreeding depression varies among cohorts of <i>Ipomopsis aggregata</i> planted in nature
Pollen presentation and pollination syndromes, with special reference to <i>Penstemon</i>
Abstract Pollen presentation theory (PPT) allows for a re‐examination of some classic themes in pollination biology. Here, we outline its implications in the context of bee‐ and bird‐adapted species of Penstemon and Keckiella (Scrophulariaceae). PPT models the optimal schedule of pollen presentation

Gas exhange and water relations of two Rocky Mountain shrub species exposed to a climate change manipulation
Global warming and terrestrial ecosystems: a conceptual framework for analysis
raise global mean temperature over the next century by 1.0–3.5 °C (Houghton et al. 1995, 1996). Ecologists from around the world have begun experiments to investigate the effects of global warming on terrestrial ecosystems, the aspect of global climate change that attracts the most public attention
Responses of subalpine meadow vegetation to four years of experimental warming
Ecosystems at high elevations may be especially sensitive to global warming, because productivity is limited to a snow-free growing season, and warming is expected to cause earlier snowmelt. Here we report on vegetation responses to experimental warming in a subalpine meadow in the Colorado Rocky Mo
