Yellowstone National Park is a national park of the United States located mainly in the northwest corner of the state of Wyoming, with small portions extending into Montana and Idaho. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially the Old Faithful geyser, one of its most popular. While it represents many types of biomes, subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests ecoregion. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. While non-native mountain men visited during the early-to-mid-19th century, organized exploration by non-natives did not begin until the late 1860s. The park was es…

Herbivores override climate control of grassland production in Yellowstone National Park.. Understanding the factors regulating temporal variation in grassland annual aboveground net primary production (ANPP) is dominated by studying the effects of climate, particularly water, in ungrazed grassland. However, the overwhelming majority of the Earth's grasslands are grazed by large herbivores, which have large effects on ANPP and interact with climate in unknown ways. Here, we analyzed an eight-year dataset of ANPP across a 26-year period that included widely variable climatic conditions and consumption rates by herds of elk (Cervus elaphus), bison (Bison bison), and pronghorn (Antilocapra ame…

Clays of Yellowstone National Park Road Log. Abstract The Workshop Lecture held in association with The Clay Mineral Society annual meeting in Billings, MT included a two-day field trip to Yellowstone National Park. The scheduled stops (Figure 1) focus on the variety of hydrothermal features, although the route takes us through an area that all too few visitors to the Park ever experience, a drive over the Beartooth Mountains of Wyoming and Montana. This is one of the most spectacular drives in the continental United States. Here you will see (Stop 1) a glaciated, alpine tundra terrain with some of the oldest rocks exposed in North America. From there we will descend to the small community…
