Surface Water Quality Data from Beaver-Impacted Streams; Trail Creek and East River, Colorado 2025
This data package contains surface water chemistry measurements collected in 2025 to evaluate how beaver damming and low-tech process-based stream restoration influence water quality and metal mobility in mountainous headwater systems of the Upper Colorado River Basin. Sampling was conducted at Trai
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

Airborne Magnetic and Radiometric Survey, Colorado Mineral Belt, Mid Block, 2023
This data release provides digital flight-line and gridded data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the central portion of the Colorado Mineral Belt, central Colorado. The Colorado Mineral Belt is a broad, northeast-southwest trending alignment of historic mining dist
Recreational trail traffic counts and trail proximity as a driver of ungulate landscape utilization
With continual growth in recreational trail use, it is becoming increasingly complicated to balance demands for outdoor recreation opportunities with wildlife conservation. To better understand how mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus canadensis) respond to trail-based recr

Data and scripts from: “Denoising autoencoder for reconstructing sensor observation data and predicting evapotranspiration: noisy and missing values repair and uncertainty quantification”
This data package includes data and scripts from the manuscript “Denoising autoencoder for reconstructing sensor observation data and predicting evapotranspiration: noisy and missing values repair and uncertainty quantification”. The study addressed common challenges faced in environmental sensing a
An Unusual Glacial Event in the Comanch Peak Wilderness Area, Larimer County, Colorado
Late Pinedale till deposits mapped in various stream valleys in the Comanche Peak Wilderness Area, north of Rocky Mountain National Park, indicate that Browns Creek Valley was glaciated from two directions simultaneously while the middle of the valley remained unglaciated. Till deposits at the upper
Aquatic invertebrate communities in old, new, and re-formed beaver ponds in the Trail Creek watershed
1. Beavers are ecosystem engineers. They alter the structure of their habitats when they cut woody vegetative material to create dams that result in ponds. Ponding slows water flow, resulting in fine sediment deposition. A wetland is created as the sediment continues to deposit. 2. The formation of
Differential response of three large mammal species to human recreation in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, USA
Outdoor recreation benefits local economies, environmental education, and public health and wellbeing, but it can also adversely affect local ecosystems. Human presence in natural areas alters feeding and reproductive behaviors, physiology, and population structure in many wildlife species, often re
The influence of human recreational trail use has on rodent and predator activity using motion triggered cameras
The recreational trails in Gunnison County, Colorado near the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) are a valuable resource for the community. RMBL is a prominent field station surrounded by a largely intact ecosystem whose diverse native plants and animals are key to its scientific research a
Woodsy Owl on Hiking and Backpacking
Before your hike, study maps of the area, get permits if necessary, and learn the terrain. Be familiar with all options-- time, alternative routes, and weather. Keep in mind the shorter daylight hours of fall and winter. LIMIT THE SIZE OF YOUR GROUP Limit your group to a size a leader can safely han
Uranium Tailings Removal Route
The Gunnison City Planning Commission has finished reviewing the environmental assessment study recently completed by the Department of Energy. The D.O.E. seems to be biased in much of the report toward using the Highway 50 route because of the possible endangerment to the mating habitat of the sage

Summary of the Gunnison Water Situation
In 1986 the City of Aurora and the Natural Energy Resources Company (NECO) filcd claims for the right to divert massive amounts of water from Gunnison County to the Front Range. The Upper Gunnison River Water Conservancy District also filed for rights to the same water for in-basin use. The High Cou
