    GEOGRAPHY OF NITRATE AND SULFATE ATMOSPHERIC WET DEPOSITION IN THE SOUTHERN ROCKY MOUNTAINS by IVAN GUILLERMO VALLES B.S., Colorado State University—Pueblo, 2005 A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography and Environmental Studies 2018 © 2018 IVAN GUILLERMO VALLES ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii This thesis for the Master of Arts degree by Ivan Guillermo Valles has been approved for the Department of Geography of Environmental Studies by Curtis D. Holder, Chair Steve Jennings Brandon Vogt Date January 27, 2018 iii Valles, Ivan Guillermo (M.A., Applied Geography) Geography of Nitrate and Sulfate Atmospheric Wet Deposition in the Southern Rocky Mountains Thesis directed by Professor Curtis Holder. ABSTRACT Data from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program’s National Trends Network, the United States Geological Survey’s Rocky Mountain Regional Snowpack Chemistry Program and the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Markets Program were analyzed to identify spatial relationships amongst atmospheric wet deposition concentrations of nitrate and sulfate. The analysis relates atmospheric wet deposition, commonly known as acid rain, to two distinct variables—as a function of elevation and also as a function of proximity to major regional electricity generating stations. This study focuses on the Southern Rocky Mountain region of the United States, and integrates depositional and emissions point-source data from Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Previous studies have identified wide-ranging adverse effects upon terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems such as nitrogen saturation, changes in plant biodiversity, and soil nutrient cycling where atmospheric wet deposition is the suspected primary means of pollutant transport and delivery.

  • Papilio Series) 2006
    (NEW April 28 PAPILIO SERIES) 2006 TAXONOMIC STUDIES AND NEW TAXA OF NORTH AMERICAN BUTTERFLIES by James A. Scott (also editor), Michael S. Fisher, Norbert G. Kondla, Steve Kohler, Crispin S. Guppy, Stephen M. Spomer, and B. Chris Schmidt Abstract. New diversity is reported and discussed among North American butterflies. Several dozen new taxa are named. A new "sibling" species has been found to occur throughout the Rocky Mts., introducing a new butterfly species to most states in western U.S. and to southern Alberta and BC. Several taxa of Colias, Euphydryas, Lycaena, and Plebejus are raised to species status. Many nam.e changes are made, and many taxa are switched between species to create several dozen new combinations. The relevance of species concepts to difficult groups of butterflies is explored. Introduction This paper consists of miscellaneous taxonomic studies on North American butterflies, some in the northeast, but mostly in the west. Most of the diversity of butterfly fauna in North America is in the western mountainous areas, where the human population is lower, so it has taken longer to study western butterflies, and a lot more study is needed. We have made new findings on many wes.tern butterflies, and this progress is reported below. And Scott recently moved his collection out of old dermestid-infested drawers into fine very-tight ones that those beetles cannot enter, and in the process of resorting them found a dozen unnamed subspecies, which are named below. As we study our butterflies and learn more and more about them, a disturbing pattern has emerged.

  • Field Trip to Northern San Juan Volcanic Field
    ,- ' FIELD TRIP TO NORTHERN SAN JUAN VOLCANIC FIELD Days 2-3: Cochetopa Park, La Garita, San Luis, and Lake City calderas P.W. Lipman, for Colorado Scientific Society, Sept. 20-21, 2003 GEOLOGIC SETTING Andesitic to rhyolitic volcanic rocks of the central San Juan volcanic field, along with associated epithermal ores, have been studied intermittently since early in the twentieth century (Emmons and Larsen, 1913; Cross and Larsen, 1935; Larsen and Cross, 1956), culminating with the detailed study of the Creede mining district by Steven and Ratte (1965) and regional field and volcanological studies (Lipman and others, 1970; Steven and others, 1974; Steven and Lipman, 1976). While much had previously been learned about the evolution of several complex caldera clusters from 3 which at least 22 major ash-flow sheets (each 150-5,000 km ) were erupted at 30-26 Ma, recent mapping and other research initiated in support of the Creede Scientific Drilling Project (Bethke and Lipman, 1987; Bethke and Hay, 2000; Lipman, 2000) has provided major new insights for the regional stratigraphic sequence, duration of volcanism, eruptive processes, magmatic evolution, and regional structure in the central part of the volcanic field. In-progress studies,to be reviewed during this trip, are focusing on the enigmatic Cochetopa Park caldera and little-studied volcanic evolution of the northeasternSan Juan Mountains, where central San Juan units overlap older tuff sheets from caldera sources in the Sawatch Range farther to the northeast. Volcanism The San Juan Mountains are the largest erosional remnant of a composite volcanic field (Fig. 1) that covered much of the southern Rocky Mountains in middle Tertiary time (Steven, 1975).

  • Streamflow Generation Processes and Residence Times in a Large, Mountainous Watershed in the Southern Rocky Mountains of Colorado, Usa
    TITLE PAGE STREAMFLOW GENERATION PROCESSES AND RESIDENCE TIMES IN A LARGE, MOUNTAINOUS WATERSHED IN THE SOUTHERN ROCKY MOUNTAINS OF COLORADO, USA By Marty Dale Frisbee Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctorate of Philosophy in Earth and Environmental Science with Dissertation in Hydrology New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology Department of Earth and Environmental Science Socorro, New Mexico June 2010 DEDICATION I dedicate this dissertation to my niece, Deanna Williams. In March 2006, I was doing field work in Colorado for this dissertation when I received the call that she had passed away. I miss her greatly. I also dedicate this dissertation to my grandfather, Lester Frisbee. He taught me the value of streams and mountains. E “The mountains were his masters. They rimmed in life. They were the cup of reality, beyond growth, beyond struggle and death. They were his absolute unity in the midst of eternal change.” Thomas Wolfe Look Homeward, Angel ABSTRACT Streamflow generation processes in hillslopes and small catchments less than 100 km2 have been well documented in the hydrological literature. Yet, few of these studies attempt to scale their results to larger watersheds. There are three major impediments to scaling hillslope runoff processes up to larger watershed scales. First, the characterization of streamflow generation processes in watersheds larger than 1000 km2 remains sketchy, in part due to logistical difficulties imposed by the larger watershed size. Second, hillslope processes tend to be highly complex and heterogeneous and the scaling of these processes will result in models that are also highly complex except at a much larger scale.

  • Chapter 7 the Lake Fork Basin
    Chapter 7 The Lake Fork Basin Basin Characteristics The Lake Fork Basin is made up of a diverse array of water users and uses including ranchers and irrigators, full time and seasonal residents, tourists, trout fisheries, boating and angling enthusiasts, and mining. Major tasks for the WMP were to review and assess the available information, update and refine the information, identify data gaps, and recommend future data collection efforts. Information collected as part of the data inventory process served as a key component to both identify needs in the Lake Fork Basin and to improve modeling and field assessment tools being used to assess these needs Figure 1-1 shows the Lake Fork of the Gunnison River (Lake Fork) Basin boundary, highways and local roads, active streamflow gages, and public land designation. Approximately 85 percent of the land within the basin boundary is public. A significant portion of the private land is adjacent to the Lake Fork and other tributaries and includes ranches and horse properties, the town of Lake City, County based subdivisions, and patented mining claims. 384 191226 CWCB Final Report Phase I Figure 1-1: Lake Fork Basin Overview Map 385 191226 CWCB Final Report Phase I Data Assessment Streamflow Measurements Three stream gauges currently measure streamflow in the Lake Fork Basin, the Lake Fork at Gateview, the Lake Fork below Lake San Cristobal, and Henson Creek at Lake City. At the time of assessment, only the Lake Fork gauges were used, as the Henson Creek gauge was only recently reactivated. Historic stream flow data was also used from the previously inactive Henson Creek gauge, in addition to two others.
