Forage Resources in Warming and Removal Plots, Almont, CO, 2019
This is data collected to explore the impacts of warming and dominant species removal on the quantity and quality of plants for cattle foraging. The data were collected from the Colorado low elevation site (Almont) of the Warming and Removal in Mountains experiment which examines the direct and indi
Total dissolved-solid loads in the Upper Colorado River Basin during high-flow hydrologic events from 2021 to 2023
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains data that allows for calculation of total dissolved-solid loads for high-flow and baseflow conditions in the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB) collected between 2021 and 2023. High-flow hydrologic events are critical periods for salinity trans

Seasonal Precipitation Classification during Surface Atmosphere Integrated Field Laboratory Campaign
The Surface Atmosphere Integrated Field Laboratory (SAIL) campaign, conducted from September 2021 to June 2023 in Crested Butte, Colorado, aimed to characterize precipitation processes in the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB). This increased observations of snowfall accumulation in this hydrological
Meteorological and Soil Data from Ecohydrology Sensor Towers at Pump House and Snodgrass Mountain in East River Watershed, Colorado, 2019-2025
This data package includes hourly meteorological and soil sensor data at eight ecohydrology monitoring sites in East River Watershed, Colorado as part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) research led by Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL). Four field sites were located on the h
Data from: Wild foundress queen bumble bees make numerous, short foraging trips and exhibit frequent nest failure: Insights from trap-nesting and RFID tracking
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's flight period is very short relative to the entire
CHESS 2025: Field-collected vegetation attributes and site photos
This dataset represents field observations of vegetation samples collected as part of the Colorado Headwaters Ecological Spectroscopy Study (CHESS) during June and July of 2025. Samples were collected in the field using tablet computers and digital forms, with target data differing by sample type (i
CHESS 2025: Leaf Area Index (LAI) for meadow, shrub, tree, and understory vegetation
This dataset contains Leaf Area Index (LAI) measurements made as part of the Colorado Headwaters Ecological Spectroscopy Study (CHESS) during June and July of 2025. Data were collected in the Upper Gunnison Basin, Colorado, across three study domains: the Upper East River (CRBU), Almont Triangle (AL
Passive and Active Seismic Data Collected Near Beaver Pond Locations in Storrs, CT; Willington, CT; and Gunnison County, CO in 2025
This data release documents seismic data collected immediately adjacent to beaver ponds and in their surrounding floodplain environments using active and passive seismic measurements at three sites. These sites are located in the University of Connecticut (UConn) Forest in Storrs, Connecticut; Fento
Mountain Basin Controls on the Snow-to-Streamflow Signal: An AIC-Weighted Multiple Linear Regression Framework
A regression-based analysis quantifies how basin characteristics modulate the snow-to-streamflow signal. First, we use the ERA5-Land reanalysis gridded product (European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts reanalysis 5 -Land component) for 4,655 hydrologic unit code - 10 (HUC10) mountain basin
Sindewald et al - Identifying alpine treeline species using high-resolution WorldView-3 multispectral imagery and convolutional neural networks dataset
The dataset contains region of interest (ROI) polygons for six treeline species found in Rocky Mountain National Park, CO. The tree and shrub species include limber pine (Pinus flexilis), willow (Salix glauca, Salix brachycarpa, and hybrids), Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii), subalpine fir (Abie
Trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) water potentials from clones with varying aspect and understory composition
Predawn and midday plant water potential measurements, collected on terminal twigs using a scholander-type pressure chamber (PMS Instruments, Corvallis, OR, USA). Measurements were collected from 1-3 canopy dominant or co-dominant raments in 12 mature trembling aspen ( Populus tremuloides ) near asp
Compilation of actual evapotranspiration and vegetation indices along critical riparian zones on the Navajo Nation from 2013-2023
These data were compiled for monitoring riparian zone trends and changes in the Navajo Nation as part of a study to document riparian ecosystem health and its water use in support of potential restoration efforts. The objective of our study was to monitor the short and medium-term effects on the rip
Cosmogenic Nuclide Burial Isochron Data for the Central City Gravel, Malta Gravel, and Lava Creek B Ash Locations: Classic Locations of Early to Middle Pleistocene Deposits, South Platte and Arkansas Rivers, Central Colorado, USA
This data release includes Al-26/Be-10 cosmogenic nuclide concentrations and burial isochron ages for three locations in central Colorado, USA, with preferred burial ages ranging from ~2 Ma to 600 ka, that provide constraints on geologic mapping and chronostratigraphic correlations of Pleistocene Co
Priority Faults for Improving Seismic Hazard Models in the Intermountain West Region
Abstract This data release includes a list of high-priority hazardous faults and associated spatial data (regional polygons and buffered fault traces) for the Intermountain West (IMW) region of the United States. These are the top five faults or regions of concern per IMW state, based on the 2025 (v
Cosmogenic Nuclide Burial Isochron Data for the Central City Gravel, Malta Gravel, and Lava Creek B Ash Locations: Classic Locations of Early to Middle Pleistocene Deposits, South Platte and Arkansas Rivers, Central Colorado, USA

Data from: Drivers of spring migration phenology in Rocky Mountain elk
By migrating, ungulates take advantage of cyclical fluctuations in resources, which allows them to persist at greater population numbers than they would in the absence of these seasonal movements. We sought to identify the drivers of spring elk (Cervus canadensis) migration and evaluate how well ind
Data from: Betting on rains that do not come: Monsoon failure and leaf area overshoot relate to increased tree mortality from drought
Structural overshoots, where biomass is overallocated to tree leaf area compared to sapwood area, could result in lethal stress during droughts. Climate change may alter climatic cues that drive leaf area production, such as temperature and precipitation, as well as seasonal dynamics that underlie s
