The Research Data collection contains the research data produced by scholars at CSU that has been made available in Mountain Scholar through 2022. This collection has a particular focus on the natural sciences, featuring the Shortgrass Steppe - Long Term Ecological Research (SGS-LTER) collection and a number of datasets from the Natural Resource Ecology Lab (NREL) and the Department of Atmospheric Science. By using these files, users agree to the CSU Libraries' Research Data Terms of Use.

CSU now offers data publishing through an institutional membership in Dryad. For more information about how to publish your data to meet journal and funder requirements, please see our Dryad information page.

    Data associated with "Methane emissions from gathering and boosting compressor stations in the U.S. Supporting volume 1: Multi-day measurements of pneumatic controller emissions"
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 2019) Luck, Benjamin; Zimmerle, Daniel; Vaughn, Timothy; Lauderdale, Terri; Keen, Kindal; Harrison, Matthew; Marchese, Anthony; Williams, Laurie; Allen, David
    This study was part of a larger study (the Gathering Emission Factor, or "GEF") study [1] to develop activity and methane emission factors for EPA's Greenhouse Gas Inventory (EPA GHGI) using direct emission measurements at the device level on all classes of equipment found on gathering compressor stations. To accomplish this, Colorado State University (CSU) partnered with the engineering firm AECOM to assist with planning, logistics, field work and analysis. Nine midstream natural gas companies – Anadarko Petroleum, Equinor, DCP Midstream, Kinder Morgan, MarkWest Energy Partners, Pioneer Natural Resources, Southwestern Energy, Williams Companies Inc., and XTO Energy Inc. – acted as partners in the study, provided site access for measurements, and provided representatives to advisory committees. At all times, and with the encouragement of industry partners, CSU maintained control the sampling plan, analysis and reporting. This study documents one part of the larger study - emissions from pneumatic actuated valve controllers (PC).

    Data associated with, "Methane emissions from gathering and boosting compressor stations in the U.S. Supporting volume 2: Compressor engine exhaust measurements
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 2019) Zimmerle, Daniel; Vaughn, Timothy; Luck, Ben; Lauderdale, Terri; Keen, Kindal; Harrison, Matt; Allen, David; Marchese, Anthony; Williams, Laurie
    The in-stack tracer method was used during the field campaign to measure unburned methane entrained in the exhaust of natural gas compressor engines ("combustion slip"). Combustion slipwas estimated by injecting a tracer gas into the exhaust stream at a known flow-rate and measuring concentrations of both the tracer gas and methane at the exhaust stack exit. The total exhaustflow was estimated from the diluted tracer gas concentration measured at the exhaust stack exit.
