Records of the Ecosystem Science and Sustainability Department

Ecosystem Science and Sustainability is the fifth and newest department in the Warner College of Natural Resources, with approval of its formation on February 17, 2011. It is the only program in Colorado that focuses exclusively on scholarship and discovery in the area of Ecosystem Science and Sustainability. The department’s mission is to understand ecosystem function and change across space and through time and to approach this understanding by examining interactions within and between natural and human systems.

The collection consists of reports, principally from the Poudre Canyon and Mountain Campus area, data sheets, and slides of regions in Colorado and other states. Reports include hydrothermographs, flume calibrations, and Mountain Campus telemetry data, including temperature, humidity, wind direction, and precipitation. The slides are of weather, water phenomena, and instrumentation.
