More DescriptionThis climate data summary report is a descriptive summary and analysis of climate data in 2010 for 13 national park units located in Colorado, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. This report describes park-level climate at both a local (single weather station) and regional setting (gridded climate maps) using standard data summary and analysis tools described in the Rocky Mountain Climate Protocol prepared by the Greater Yellowstone and Rocky Mountain Inventory and Monitoring Networks.
