Potentilla demographic and environmental data for Rainbow Meadows, Elk Meadows, and Cabin Clearing, 2018 - 2020.

To understand parent-hybrid dynamics in cinquefoil (Potentilla) species in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, I am estimating environmental overlap among parents and hybrids, interbreeding among parents and hybrids, and hybrid population growth in multiple natural populations at NWT and (not included here) the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL). This data was collected to test broad hypotheses about hybrid-parent dynamics in changing montane environments.

为探究科罗拉多落基山脉中委陵菜属（Potentilla）物种的亲本-杂交后代动态关系，本研究针对NWT样地以及落基山生物实验室（Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, RMBL，此处未纳入）的多个自然种群，估算了亲本与杂交后代间的环境重叠程度、亲本与杂交后代间的互交繁育情况，以及杂交种群的增长动态。本数据集的采集旨在验证山地环境变化背景下，关于亲本-杂交后代动态的一般性科学假说。
