Data

Staff of USGS Science Centers in Region 7: Upper Colorado Basin collect a wide variety of natural resource data types including spatial, geologic, hydrologic, and biologic. Data included in USGS-series publications that are not publicly available in USGS databases are published in Data Releases. Short descriptions and links to Data Releases produced by Region 7 Science Centers are shown below.

LPJ biomes (30-year mean) simulated using monthly historical (1901-2000) CRU TS 2.1 climate data and projected future (2001-2099) CMIP3 A2 and A1B simulated climate data on a 30-second grid of the northwest United States and southwest Canada, version 1.0 LPJ biomes (30-year mean) simulated using monthly historical (1901-2000) CRU TS 2.1 climate data and projected future (2001-2099) CMIP3 A2 and A1B simulated climate data on a 30-second grid of the northwest United States and southwest Canada, version 1.0

This data set consists of biomes (30-year mean) simulated using LPJ, a dynamic global vegetation model (Sitch et al. 2003, Global Change Biology 9:161-185), for a 30-second grid of the northwest United States and southwest Canada. Shafer et al. (2015, PLoS ONE 10: e0138759) describe the methods used to create the biome data. LPJ was run for 1901-2000 using historical climate data...

Modeled Streamflow Metrics on Small, Ungaged Stream Reaches in the Upper Colorado River Basin Modeled Streamflow Metrics on Small, Ungaged Stream Reaches in the Upper Colorado River Basin

Modeling streamflow is an important approach for understanding landscape-scale drivers of flow and estimating flows where there are no streamgage records. In this study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with Colorado State University, the objectives were to model streamflow metrics on small, ungaged streams in the Upper Colorado River Basin and identify streams that...

Water, Energy, and Biogeochemical Budgets (WEBB): Loch Vale Data Water, Energy, and Biogeochemical Budgets (WEBB): Loch Vale Data

The chemistry of streams and lakes have been monitored in Loch Vale since 1983. Changes in stream and lake chemistry have been traced to variations in climate and atmospheric deposition of pollutants. Samples are collected throughout the year in Loch Vale. This provides information on seasonal variations in stream and lake chemistry.
