Geometric Designs on Mimbres Bowls: (The Gunnison Collection, IX)
In a series of eight former articles, published elsewhere, the writer has described the designs on many of the prehistoric pottery vessels in the collection of the Museum of Archaeology of The Western State College of Colorado Of these eight articles, the last three1 have dealt with the designs on M
Control of Pyrethroid Resistant Colorado Potato Beetle, Grand Forks, North Dakota, 1991
Abstract This experiment was located on the Red River Valley Potato Growers Research farm in Grand Forks, ND. The field was planted on 28 May using cut A-size 'Norchip' certified seed. Plots were four rows, 0.9 m wide, 7.6 m in length, with a 1.5 m fallow aisle at the end of each plot. Plots were ar
Terrestrial ecosytem feedbacks to global climate change
Anthropogenic greenhouse gases are expected to induce changes in global climate that can alter ecosystems in ways that, in turn, may further affect climate. Such climate-ecosystem interactions can generate either positive or negative feedbacks to the climate system, thereby either enhancing or dimin
Potential for Events Similar to the Deadly West Salt Creek Landslide, Grand Mesa Area, Colorado
ABSTRACT The deadly West Salt Creek Landslide of 2014, one of the largest landslides to occur in the United States in historical time, was surprising in its suddenness and length of runout. Its source area, the edge of Grand Mesa in western Colorado, was potentially the source of other similar lands

Reservoir and Source Potential of Eocene Microbialites, Green River Formation, USA
In recent years, large petroleum discoveries within the lacustrine microbialite facies of pre-salt systems of offshore Brazil, Angola, and Gabon have increased interest in the potential of microbial carbonates as reservoir rocks. Whereas a multitude of studies have been conducted on microbialites an
Source rock characterization of the Green River oil shale, Piceance Creek Basin, Colorado
The Green River Formation in Piceance Creek basin is estimated to have the largest oil shale deposits in the world today, and it also provides a classic model for lacustrine source rock deposition.Based on study of facies associations, depositional trends, and basin-scale correlations, a sequence st
Power of place and landscape
This chapter presents and compares three military landscapes encountered by the United States (US) Army’s Second World War 10th Mountain Division, the only wartime US formation dedicated to mountain warfare. The Division’s training in the Rocky Mountains was more than adequate for their task of scal
Uncompahgre fault geometry: A seismic, field, and gravity study near Nucla, Colorado, Paradox Basin, USA
Seismic, well, field and gravity data are used to further understand the Uncompahgre fault near Nucla, Colorado, Paradox Basin, USA. The data help explain the complex sedimen- tary and structural history associated with faulting and salt flowage along the eastern margin of the Paradox Basin. Near Nu

Masculinized female yellow-bellied marmots initiate more social interactions
The aquatic insect communities of Holbrook Creek and Cochetopa Creek in Colorado.
The first objective for this problem in lieu of thesis project was to gather, identify to the lowest practical taxonomic level and organize all available aquatic insects collected from high altitude Colorado aquatic systems during the summers of 1994, 1996, 1998, and 2002 for the University of North

Climatic variation and risk assessment in a highly seasonal mammal
Climate change and its resulting effects on seasonality are known to alter a variety of animal behaviors including those related to foraging, phe- nology, and migration. Although many studies focus on the impacts of phenological changes on physiology or fitness enhancing behaviors, fewer have invest
