Methods detailed in: Lahr, E.C., Backe, K.M. & Frank, S.D. Intraspecific variation in morphology, physiology, and ecology of wildtype relative to horticultural varieties of red maple (Acer rubrum). Trees 34, 603–614 (2020).
Groundwater Annual Drought Metrics -------------------------------- Percentile Annual Metrics -Total duration below threshold: The number of days of the year where flow percentiles are below the threshold. -Longest Duration below threshold: The longest continuous period in a year where flow percentiles are below the threshold. -Total volume below threshold: The volume of days of the year where flow percentiles are below the threshold. -Largest volume below threshold: The largest volume of a continuous period in a year where flow percentiles are below the threshold. -Minimum percentile: the lowest flow percentile in a year. -------------------------------- Percentile Event Metrics -Total drought volume: Annual...
Precipitation amounts, and frequencies are major regulators of soil heat-load profiles as the interval between rainfall events allows for increased heat storage during cloudless days. The extreme drought of 2011 and the subsequent Flash Drought that occurred in summer, 2012, developed in part due to soil temperature dynamics across the landscape of the Southern High Plains. For both agroecosystems and natural landscapes within the South-Central Region, soil temperature has a major role in determining the success of annual cropping systems, the ability of perennial plants to either establish or maintain themselves and the ability of the soil bacteria and fungi to carry out important decomposition and nutrient cycling,...

This folder contains summaries of droughts based on percentiles estimates of groundwater levels from NWIS and NGWMN for various time periods. It also contains various associated files that were used in assembling and producing this dataset. Additional information regarding NWIS groundwater data can be found here: USGS Groundwater Data for the Nation. More information regarding the NGWMN can be found here: National Ground-Water Monitoring Network (usgs.gov) -------------------------------------- Explanation of file names: The first several pieces are the type of data use to create the file "groundwater_percentiles" After this is the time period of analysis, e.g. "1970-2020" Next is the percentile calculation method,...
This data release is tree-ring data near Columbine Lake and surrounding region, Grand County, Colorado (Latitude 40.27˚ N, Longitude -105.83˚ E NAD83). Re-collection of four existing tree-ring sites (Hot Sulphur Springs Psuedotsuga menziessii (HSU), Lexan Creek Picea engelmannii (LCU), Monarch Lake Pinus ponderosa (MLU), and Vasquez Mountain Psuedotsuga menziessii (VMU)) was conducted to update data to the most recent years possible and to maximize data overlap with instrumental records and with historical records of fire occurrence. At the time of collection, initial climate-growth relationships were assessed in a network of previously collected tree-ring sites (collected between 1987 and 2003) to determine which...

The impacts of climate change on cold water species will likely manifest in populations at the trailing edge of their distribution. Rio Grande cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii virginalis, RGCT) occupy arid southwestern U.S.A. streams at the southern-most edge of all cutthroat trout distributions; thus making RGCT particularly vulnerable to the anticipated warming and drying in this region. However, RGCT may possess a portfolio of life-history traits that aide in their persistence, attributes commonly observed in trailing edge populations. We marked RGCT across eight populations in 2016 and 2017 and used this capture-mark-recapture data to determine how environmental constraints influenced life-history trait...
This dataset includes spatial locations in the Pacific Northwest where streamflow observations were recorded. For the purpose of this investigation, all streamflow observations were converted into wet or dry indicator values.

These datasets provide spatially-explicit estimates of the magnitude of giant sequoia foliage dieback along selected trail corridors in Sequoia and Kings Canyon national parks, California, from 2014 through 2017. They additionally provide giant sequoia tree-ring measurements, through the year 1989, for two locations in the Giant Forest grove, Sequoia National Park, California. These data support the following publications: Nathan L. Stephenson, Adrian J. Das, Nicholas J. Ampersee, Kathleen G. Cahill, Anthony C. Caprio, John E. Sanders, A. Park Williams, Patterns and correlates of giant sequoia foliage dieback during California’s 2012–2016 hotter drought, Forest Ecology and Management, Available online 7 November...

This folder and its contents include summaries produced from fish and habitat surveys conducted in Mason Creek, tributary of the East Fork Lewis River, SW Washington, during summer of 2017. First, estimates of abundance and survival for juvenile coho salmon were generated for three time periods (early, middle, and late) during the summer of 2017 and reported in the file "Estimates of juvenile coho summer abundance and survival_MasonCreek_2017.xlsx". Second, summaries of the continuous habitat surveys can be found in the file "FinalStats_MasonMill2017_FishRescue.xlsx". Specifically here, the total length of stream habitat by habitat type (flowing, fragmented, dry) and the frequency and area of stream pools are summarized...
This dataset contains standardized in-situ soil moisture measurements from four sparse soil moisture monitoring networks in the South Central United States. This includes measurements in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. The raw soil moisture measurements from a total of 220 stations over the four states were obtained from the Oklahoma Mesonet, West Texas Mesonet, USDA Soil Climate Analysis Network and NOAA Climate Reference Network. The measurements have been screened using the Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QAQC) process that is described in Quiring et al. (2016). The measurements were standardized to common depths using the methods described in Zhang et al. (2017) and they are provided at a daily...
The files in the sub-folder "1. Juvenile coho salmon abundance and survival" consist of fish survey data and the associated analysis. The file "02_Fish survey data_all events_2019-11-27.csv" contains the actual fish survey data that was collected in Mason Creek, tributary of East Fork Lewis River, SW Washington, during summer of 2017. The protocol for the fish surveys are outline in the file "Fish Rescue Field Protocol_2017_FINAL VERSION_2017-06-01.pdf". The abundance and survival analysis can be found in the file "Juvenile MR abundance_Coho_02Contraints_2019-12-02.R". This file should be loaded through the .Rproj file "Fish Abundance.Rproj". There are many files needed to run the analysis that consist of summaries...

The impacts of climate change on cold water species will likely manifest in populations at the trailing edge of their distribution. Rio Grande cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii virginalis, RGCT) occupy arid southwestern U.S.A. streams at the southern-most edge of all cutthroat trout distributions; thus making RGCT particularly vulnerable to the anticipated warming and drying in this region. We collected stream temperature and stream drying to determine how these environmental constraints influence life-history trait expression (length- and age-at-maturity), demography, and extirpation risk in RGCT populations from northern New Mexico, U.S.A. We found the rate at which RGCT reached maturity was highest at warm...
