Album caption and index card: Natural tanks filled with runoff from rain, serve as emergency sources of drinking water. Largest tank in foreground contains 4 feet of water and small freshwater shrimp. So-called tanks, or potholes, are formed partly by water dissolving the calcium carbonate cement and partly by wind or water removing the resulting loose sand grains. View is north toward Junction Butte from point about a mile south of the White Rim Trail. Red rocks in hill on right are in lower part of Moenkopi Formation. Canyonlands National Park. Grand County, Utah n.d. (Photo by E.N. Hinrichs) Note: Published as figure 17 in U.S. Geological Survey. Bulletin 1327. 1974; figure 18 in U.S. Geological Survey. Bulletin...

This dataset represents the variety (count of unique classes within 1 ha) of vegetation communities, river channel and bare areas (often sand bars) mapped along the Colorado River bottomland from the Colorado state line (San Juan and Grand Counties, Utah) to the southern Canyonlands NP boundary, as of September 2010. Traditional image interpretation cues were used to develop the polygons, such as shape, size, pattern, tone, texture, color, and shadow, from high resolution, true color, aerial imagery (0.3m resolution), acquired for the project. Additional, public available aerial photos (NAIP, 2011) were used to cross-reference cover classes. As with any digital layer, this layer is a representation of what is actually...

This collection of maps shows relative habitat quality for a suite of species that use riparian overstory habitats. Component layers include: tree patch size, presence and complexity of riparian understory, and abundance of tamarisk. Associated layers such as river channels at high flow and bottomland reaches are included for reference.

In this study, we conducted rainfall simulation experiments in a cool desert ecosystem to examine the role of biological soil crust disturbance and composition on dissolved and sediment C and N losses. We compared runoff and sediment C and N losses from intact late-successional dark cyanolichen crusts (intact) to both trampled dark crusts (trampled) and dark crusts where the top 1 cm of the soil surface was removed (scraped). In a second experiment, we compared C and N losses in runoff and sediments in early-successional light cyanobacterial crusts (light) to that of intact late-successional dark cyanolichen crusts (dark). A relatively high rainfall intensity of approximately 38 mm per 10-min period was used to...

Considers S. 26, to expand the boundaries of Canyonlands National Park in southeastern Utah. Considers (90) S. 26. Published by U.S. G.P.O., in 1968.
In this study, we examined N gas loss as nitric oxide (NO) from N-fixing biologically crusted soils in Canyonlands National Park, Utah. We hypothesized that NO gas loss would increase with increasing N fixation potential of the biologically crusted soil. NO fluxes were measured from biologically crusted soils with three levels of N fixation potential (Scytonema-Nostoc-Collema spp. (dark)>Scytonema-Nostoc-Microcoleus spp. (medium)>Microcoleus spp. (light)) from soil cores and field chambers. In both cores and field chambers there was a significant effect of crust type on NO fluxes, but this was highly dependent on season. NO fluxes from field chambers increased with increasing N fixation potential of the biologically...

This dataset represents the relative abundance of non-native, woody cover types in vegetation patches, as mapped from high resolution imagery from 2010. This mapping was conducted as part of the Colorado River Conservation Planning Project, a joint effort between the National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy, US Geological Survey, Bureau of Land Management, and Utah Forestry Fire and State Lands.

This is a model of the relative costs of restoration for of vegetation communities of the Colorado River bottomland in Utah. The model incorporates the prevalence of woody and herbaceous non-native species, difficulty of access to bottomland areas, and presence of woody and/or herbaceous non-native species. See Open File Report, Rasmussen and Shafroth, Colorado River Conservation Planning for geoprocessing details.

This is a model of the potential for natural recovery in vegetation communities of the Colorado River bottomland in Utah. The model incorporates the prevalence of native species, areas inundated in high flow conditions, and the prevalence of non-native species. See Open File Report, Rasmussen and Shafroth, Colorado River Conservation Planning for geoprocessing details.

This section of the data release includes drillhole information in the format of a comma-separated value (CSV) file (2018LakePowellCoring_DrillholeInfo.csv). It is Part 1 (of four) in this data release and represents the broadest hierarchical information on the dataset including the drillhole name, location, water depth, sediments top and bottom, drillhole depth, and recovery for each coring location. Each drillhole comprises multiple cores which are outlined in “Part 2 – Core and core section information from the 2018 coring project in Lake Powell, Utah” (2018LakePowellCoring_CoreSectionInfo.csv) of this data release. Core logs and spectrophotometry data are available in “Part 3 – Multi-Sensor Core Logger and spectrophotometry...

This climate and vegetation index dataset was collected from readily available open source data, such as Landsat. The data represents points across the northern Colorado plateau. The vegetation type was defined based on U.S. Geological Survey ReGAP data. Using compositing techniques by season we developed a dataset of lag and legacy for each point. We could then look to understand how both lag and legacy impacted vegetation production across the time series. In this dataset we focus on the soil adjusted vegetation index (SAVI), the standardized precipitation and evapotranspiration index (SPEI), and precipitation. Included in this dataset are climate lags of 3,6,9 and 12 months. Additionally, the legacy construct...

Album caption and index card: Space image map of Canyonlands National Park and vicinity, from unmanned Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-1), at height of about 570 miles. Image covers an area about 100 miles square. Park boundaries are not shown because of difficulty in locating them accurately, but features such as Colorado and Green Rivers can be identified. Canyonlands National Park. Utah. August 23, 1972. (Photo by National Aeronautics and Space Administration) Note: Published as figure 7 in U.S. Geological Survey. Bulletin 1327. 1974.
