Data

Comma-separated values (.csv) file containing data related to mercury in biota collected from the Hells Canyon Reservoir Complex on the Snake River, Idaho and Oregon.

Wind energy is important for achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions but also contributes to global bat mortality. Current strategies to minimize bat mortality due to collision with wind-turbine blades fall broadly into two categories: curtailment (limiting turbine operation during high-risk periods) and deterrence (discouraging bat activity near turbines). Recently, there has been...

This dataset provides the plot-level data of the relative cover of ten different plant associations derived from a structural topic model and resistance and resilience metrics for predicting their abundances. Data comes from four different fires across the Great Basin: the 2007 Murphy Fire, 2012 Rush Fire, 2012 Holloway Fire, and the 2015 Soda Fire. Additional data utilized in the cross...

Comma-separated values (.csv) files containing data related to amphibian, fish, and sediment sampling near Churchill, Manitoba between 2015-2019. Data files contain mercury concentrations in amphibian and fish tissues, amphibian egg masses, and sediment, as well as amphibian and fish morphometrics, life stage, site distance to coast and biome where the samples were collected.

This dataset contains Sanger ITS sequences from biocrust lichen taxa collected at Horse Heaven Hills in Washington, USA. It also includes metagenomic biocrust lichen data from 20 plots at Horse Heaven Hills in Washington, USA. These data were collected by Bruce McCune and Heather Root in 2019-2020 and sequenced for ITS using bulk sequencing in the PacBio system at Brigham Young...

Comma-separated values (.csv) file containing data related to bat sampling from southwestern U.S. National Parks in 2023. Data file contains mercury concentrations in bat tissues and blood.

Data includes species cover of cheatgrass (BRTE) and Russian thistle (SATR), as well as functional group cover of Sandberg's bluegrass (POSE), bare ground, litter, and shrubs for the year of 2021.

Indicators of climatic, hydrologic, and ecological drought responses in water-related terrestrial and aquatic conditions within a single catchment in the northwestern Great Basin Desert and its associated stream network were developed from stream flow, climate and remote sensing sources for the time period of 1988 to 2020.

This dataset contains information on seedling survival, physiochemical, morphological, and eco-physiological characteristics of seedlings grown and planted from seed collected from different sagebrush populations as well as the climatic conditions of those seed source sites in relation to the common garden location in which they were planted.

This data release supports the referenced publication 'Climate futures for lizards and snakes in western North America may result in new species management issues' in this metadata record. Data included in this release includes raster data outputs and resulting summaries from the analyses, described in the processing steps of this metadata record. In summary this release includes...

Data includes functional group cover of exotic annual grasses, shallow rooted perennial grasses, and cover, basal diameter, height, and density of deep-rooted perennial grasses within the first five years after the 2015 Soda wildfire across post-fire drill-seeding treatments.

Invasion of exotic annual grasses (EAG) and increased wildfire have led to an emphasis on managing rangeland plant communities for resistance to invasion and resilience to disturbances. In sagebrush steppe and similar rangelands, perennial bunchgrasses and particularly their roots are hypothesized to be primary contributors to the resistance and resilience. We asked how bunchgrass root...
