  • Seasonal Biotic Events in Two Colorado Alpine Tundra Ponds
    Seasonal Biotic Events in Two Colorado Alpine Tundra Ponds EUGENE H. SCHMITZ • Reprinted from THE AMERICAN MIDLAND NATURALIST Vol. 61(4424-446. 1959 University of Notre Dame Press Notre Dame, Ind. Seasonal Biotic Events in Two Colorado Alpine Tundra Ponds' EUGENE H. SCHMITZ University of Colorado, Boulder The rugged terrain and the rigorous climatic conditions of the alpine tundra present a rather formidable picture to the field biologist. The long winter, deep snow, blizzards, and high winds make the alpine tundra relatively inaccessible for biological studies with ordinary equipment during much of the year. Even in the short summer, high winds, frequent cold showers, and summer blizzards are likely to occur at any time. It has long been generally recognized that such severe climatic conditions are remarkably restrictive upon the aquatic as well as the terrestrial biota of the tundra. With the exception of Neldner and Pennak (1955), who conducted a full open season study on a single Colorado alpine pond, the Amer- ican literature on tundra ponds is almost non-existent, being limited to brief descriptions, single visits, and casual observations. European investigators, such as Brink and Wingstrand (1949), Pesta (1933, 1935, 1943, 1948), Pichler (1939a, 1939b) , Stirnimann (1926), Thomasson (1951, 1952), and Turnowsky (1946), have produced a much more extensive array of literature, but like the majority of Amer- ican papers, these are brief descriptions and not full seasonal studies. It is the purpose of the present paper to give a limnological description of two small Colorado alpine tundra ponds, based upon observations and data gathered at relatively frequent intervals during the entire open season.

    THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published by The Sta.te H istorical Society of Colorado VOL. V Denver, Colorado, June, 1928 No. 3 The Hatcher Ditch (1846-1928) The Oldest Colorado Irrigation Ditch Now in Use By ..A. W. McHendrie* While it is probable there were irrigating ditches constructed and in use within the present boundaries of the state of Colo­ rado nearly, if not quite, a century prior to this year of our Lord, 1928, none of them are in existence today, nor have they been in use within the memory of any man now living. Priority number one for the right to beneficially use the waters of a natural stream in this state for irrigation purposes has been awarded to, and is still in use by, a ditch located on the Culebra, a tributary to the Rio Grande River, in Costilla County. The beginning of the construction of this ditch, known as ''The San Luis People's Ditch," was ..April 10, 1852, and the ditch has an officially recorded priority as of that date.1 While this ditch is probably entitled to the distinction of being the oldest ditch in Colorado continuously in operation from the date of its construction, nevertheless there is in existence another ditch, the history of which begins about five and a half years earlier and which, ·with a comparatively brief interrup­ tion, has continuously carried water from the stream from which it derives its supply and delivered it to and made fruitful the very tract of land the reclamation of which was the object of its original construction, begun in the latter part of September or the early part of October, 1846.
