1 Woolstenhulme, Jack P.New records of molluscaRecent work on the molluscan collection of the University of Utah, involving the transferring of sets from the accession lots to the systematic series and the cataloging of the new accessions to the museum, has brought out several unpublished records and many gifts of recent date. Among the former a...1942-05-20
2 Rees, Don M.Origin of Mosquito producing waters in the vicinity of Salt Lake City, UtahDuring the course of this investigation, from 1929 to 1987, of the mosquitoes in the vicinity of Salt Lake City, some interesting data have been collected on the origin of waters that produce mosquitoes. These data are now sufficient to justify certain pertinent conclusions. As all mosquito larvae a...1939-04-28
3 Mattis, Daniel C.Phonon model of vacancy-interstitial pair formation in solidsBonds between neighboring atoms in a solid are imperfect harmonic oscillators. Through consideration of the nonlinearities, it is shown that vacancy-interstitial defect pairs can be described in terms of phonon dynamical variables. The effective spring constants are determined by self-consistency...Harmonic; Potential; Homogeneous1984

5 Ehleringer, James R.Potential adaptability and constraints of response to changing climates for Encelia farinosa var. phenicodonta from southern Baja California, MexicoTo examine the physiological adaptability of Encelia farinosa var. phenicodonta from southern Baja California, plants from Todos Santos, BCS were raised in central Arizona where winter-spring precipitation is greater than typically experienced by this variety. Plants were capable of high photosynthe...Encelia farinosa var. phenicodonta; Ecophysiology1996
6 Miller, Jan D.Importance of bitumen viscosity in the hot-water processing of domestic tar sandsThe separation efficiency of the hot water digestion-flotation technique used for bitumen recovery from various domestic tar sands was evaluated. Bitumen viscosity was found to be the most important tar sand property in determining the success of the bitumen separation. Bitumen viscosity of the tar ...Tar sand; Bitumen viscosity; Flotation; Hot-water processing1983
7 Ehleringer, James R.Plant adaptation in the Great Basin and Colorado PlateauAdaptive features of plants of the Great Basin are reviewed. The combination of cold winters and an arid to semiarid precipitation regime results in the distinguishing features of the vegetation in the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau. The primary effects of these climatic features arise from how t...Plant adaptation; Great Basin; Colorado Plateau; Cold deserts1992

10 Rees, Don M.The Mosquitoes of UtahIn the preparation of this bulletin, an effort has been made to bring together what is known about the mosquito fauna of Utah. Prior to the initiation of the present investigation, very little work had been done in the state in connection with this important problem. The available information on the...1943-03-04

12 Ehleringer, James R.; Negus, Norman C.Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area: history, flora, geology, climate, and ecologyRed Butte Canyon is a protected, near pristine canyon entering Salt Lake Valley, Utah. It contains a well-developed riparian zone and a perennial stream; hillside vegetation ranges from grasslands on the lower limits to Douglas-fir and aspen stands at the upper elevations. In this paper we describe ...Intermountain West; Grassland; Oak-maple; Plant adaptation; Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area; Human impact1992
13 Nelson, DonaldConstraint Jacobians for constant-time inverse kinematics and assembly optimizationAn algorithm for the constant-time solution of systems of geometric constraint equations is presented in this work. constraint equations and their Jacobians may be used in conjunction with other numerical methods to solve for a variety of kinematics, dynamics, and assembly optimization problems. The...Constant-time; Inverse kinematics; Constraint Jacobians1998
14 Sperry, John S.Winter xylem embolism and spring recovery in Betula cordifolia, Fagus grandifolia, Abies balsamea, and Picea rubensXylem embolism was monitored from mid-winter to mid-summer in four co-occurring species: Betula cordifolia (Reg.) Fern., Fagus grandifolia Ehrh., Abies balsamea (L.) Mill., Picea rubens Sarg. The study site was a west-facing slope in the northern Green Mountains of Vermont, U.S.A.; Betula and conife...Conductivity; Hydraulic; Trees1993
15 Gondolo, Paolo; Springer, Robert WayneSite characteristic of Southern Utah sites for astronomical observatoriesThe University of Utah has recently begun construction of a new 0.8m optical/IR robotic telescope to be operated as a regional astronomy resource in the Intermountain West. The new Southern Utah Observatory (SUO) will require a high altitude (>3000 m) site with excellent atmospheric seeing, favorab...2008
16 Woodbury, Angus M.Birds of the Navajo CountryThe Navajo country as covered in this paper lies in southeastern Utah and northeastern Arizona and is bounded on the north, west and south by the San Juan, Colorado, Little Colorado and Rio Puerco rivers and on the east by the Arizona-New Mexico state line. That part of the Navajo country lying in n...1945-03-01
17 Gesteland, Raymond F.; Krapcho, Karen J.; Talbot, Phil; Thulin, CraigCrystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridineThe coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ...Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor1995
18 Steenburgh, William JamesGreat Salt Lake-effect precipitation: observed frequency, characteristics, and associated environmental factorsThis climatology examines the environmental factors controlling the frequency, occurrence, and morphology of Great Salt Lake-effect (GSLE) precipitation events using cool season (16 September-15 May) Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) imagery, radiosonde soundings, and MesoWest surfac...2012-01-01
19 Ehleringer, James R.Interspecific competition and resource pulse utilization in a cold desert communityIn desert ecosystems a large proportion of water and nitrogen is supplied in rain-induced pulses. It has been suggested that competitive interactions among desert plants would be most intense during these pulse periods of high resource availability. We tested this hypothesis with three cold desert s...Atriplex confertifolia; Chrysothamnus nauseosus; Colorado Plateau; desert; Gutierrezia sarothrae; Neighbor removal; Plant competition; Resource pulses; Pulse utilization; Stable isotopes; Water uptake2002
20 Miller, Jan D.Effect of feed source in the hot water processing of Utah tar sandThe processing strategy for the effective separation of bitumen from low grade (K.10 weight percent bitumen) Utah tar sands by a hot water process differs significantly from that used for the processing of high grade (> 10 weight percent bitumen) Utah tar sands. Excellent separations (coefficient o...Tar sand; Utah; Bitumen; Hot water separation; Froth flotation1980
