Water temperature models, data and code for the Colorado, Green, San Juan, Yampa, and White rivers in the Colorado River basin

These data were compiled for a manuscript in which 1) we develop a water temperature model for the major river segments and tributaries of the Colorado River basin, including the Colorado, Green, Yampa, White, and San Juan rivers; 2) we link modeled water temperature to fish population data to predict the probability native and nonnative species will be common in the future in a warming climate; and 3) assess the degree to which dams create thermal discontinuity in summer in river segments across the western US. Per goal #1, we developed a water temperature model using data spanning 1985-2015 that predicts water temperature every 1 mile (1.6-km) in rivers both now and in the future due to the potential influence...

Diets of young Colorado squawfish and other small fish in backwaters of the Green River, Colorado and Utah

ABSTRACT.-We compared diet of young-or-year Colorado squawfish (Ptychocheilus lucius), an endangered cyprinid, with diets of other fish <75 mm total length (TL) collected from backwaters of the Green River between river kilometers 555 and 35 during summer and autumn 1987. Species included native Rhinichthys osculus, Catostomus discoholus, and C. latipinnis, and nonnative Cyprinella lutrensis, Notrupis stramineus, Pit"l1&'Phales promelas, Ictalurus punctatus, and upamis cyanelll1s. For (;,-8.ch species, diet varied with size and between upper and lower river reaches but not between seasons for Hsh of similar size. Larval chironomids and ccratopogonids were principal foods of most fishes. Copepods and cladocerans...
