Instream Flow, Drought Stress, and Tree Biomass Monitoring
Connects hydrology and water rights policy — including instream flow protection and environmental review under CEQA — with field protocols for measuring drought-induced tree mortality and aboveground biomass across the Upper Colorado watershed and Denver region.

Data from: Betting on rains that do not come: Monsoon failure and leaf area overshoot relate to increased tree mortality from drought
Structural overshoots, where biomass is overallocated to tree leaf area compared to sapwood area, could result in lethal stress during droughts. Clima...
