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
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

Decomposing an elevational gradient in predation by insectivorous birds
Insectivorous birds have ecologically important effects on prey abundance, behavior, and evolution, and through top-down control birds indirectly reduce herbivory and promote plant growth. While several studies sought to characterize biogeographic patterns in top-down control by birds, variation in
Spectral data for quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) clones of different ploidy levels
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
