Cashdan, Elizabeth A. | Competition between foragers and food producers on the Botletli River, Botswana | The immigration of food-producing groups into areas occupied by hunters and gatherers must have been a common occurrence in prehistory. How were the hunter-gatherers affected by this? I describe here two groups of Kalahari Basarwa ('Bushmen'), one living along the flood plain of the lower Botletli ... | Kalahari Basarwa; Bushmen; Foraging; Cattle | 1986 |

Silverman, Randall H. | Seven deadly sins of disaster recovery | Disaster response is largely about managing people. Human failings and vice can delay or derail library and archives recovery activities, causing irreparable damage to irreplaceable cultural property. Peter Waters' seven requirements for conducting successful disaster recoveries are contrasted with ... | Peter Waters; Florence flood; Disaster plan; Recovery protocol; Library; Archive | 2007 |

Adler, Robert W. | Changing the Law-Science Paradigm for Colorado River Restoration | Legal mandates and scientific realities conflict when existing legal principles do not match the realities and limits of current science. Those conflicts can be addressed if scientists communicate the limits of existing scientific capabilities and if the legal system responds accordingly | | 2008 |

Blackwelder, Eliot; Hubbs, Carl L.; Miller, Robert R.; Antevs, Ernst | The Great Basin with emphasis on glacial and postglacial times | The Great Basin is a physiographic province the boundaries o f which are somewhat indefinite. Roughly it lies between the Sierra Nevada on the west and the Wasatch Mountains on the east, but its tributary valleys extend over into Wyoming. To the north it grades into the Columbia lava plateau, and to... | | 1948-06-30 |

Brown, Francis Harold | Gombe group basalts and initiation of pliocene deposition in the Turkana depression, northern Kenya and southern Ethiopia | A little before 4 Ma ago, deposition of Pliocene and Pleistocene strata described as the Omo Group began in the Turkana and Omo basins of northern Kenya and southern Ethiopia. Soon after, basaltic magma erupted as thin lava flows, and intruded as dykes into the oldest Pliocene strata of the basin. T... | | 2004 |

Brown, Francis Harold | The lower Omo basin | The boundaries of the Lower Omo Basin have been mapped by Fuchs (1939) and by Butzer (1970, 1971) in a general way. The structural features and physiography of the eastern and central part of the Lower Omo Basin are best expressed on the maps of Davidson et al. (1973). Walsh and Dodson (1969) have m... | | 1983 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Unsupervised learning of contextual role knowledge for coreference resolution | We present a coreference resolver called BABAR that uses contextual role knowledge to evaluate possible antecedents for an anaphor. BABAR uses information extraction patterns to identify contextual roles and creates four contextual role knowledge sources using unsupervised learning. These knowledge ... | Coreference resolution; Coreference resolver; BABAR; Contextual role knowledge; Unsupervised learning | 2004 |

Francis, Leslie | Penn Central Transportation Company v. New York City: easy taking-clause cases make uncertain Law. | In Penn Central Transportation Company v.

Davidson, Diane W. | Tropical arboreal ants: why so abundant? | ANTS ARE AMONG the most numerous and readily observed arthropods of tropical forests. Indeed, based on their standing biomass and many effects on other species, ants (Formicidae) are arguably the dominant arthropod family in the canopies of lowland rain forest trees (Tobin 1995). Others have tried t... | Arboreal ants; Tropics | 1996 |

Davidson, Diane W. | Ant-plant symbioses in Africa and the neotropics : history, biogeography and diversity | Symbiotic ant-plant relationships afford an excellent opportunity to analyze the effects of both historical and ecological factors on the evolution of mutualisms.
