| Making of the channel tunnel: a modern day wonder | Without any doubt, the Channel Tunnel will alter the face of Anglo- French travel in the near future. It caused the coming together of two communities joined for the first time since the Ice Age by a single fixed land link. It has made the dream of many great dreamers and visionaries over the last t... | Eurotunnel | 1995-10-05 |

Kestle, John R. W. | Randomized trial of cerebrospinal fluid shunt valve design in pediatric hydrocephalus | OBJECTIVE: Forty percent of standard cerebrospinal fluid shunts implanted for the treatment of pediatric hydrocephalus fail within the first year. Two new shunt valves designed to limit excess flow, particularly in upright positions, were studied to compare treatment failure rates with those for st... | Shunt failure; Valve design; Orbis-Sigma valve; Delta valve | 1998 |

Coley, Phyllis D.; Lokvam, John; Kursar, Thomas A. | Allelochemic function for a primary metabolite: the case of L-tyrosine hyper-production in Inga umbellifera (Fabaceae) | Young leaves of tropical forest trees experience far higher herbivory pressure than mature leaves of the same species. Selection on young leaves has led to diverse forms of defense chemical expression. Though most allelochemicals are secondary metabolites, allelochemic function for a primary metabol... | 5-amino-4-hydroxy-pentanoic acid; Panama; Barro Colorado Island; Fabaceae; Inga umbellifera; Primary metabolite; Heliothis virescens | 2006 |

Broughton, John | Terminal Pleistocene fish remains from Homestead Cave, Utah, and implications for fish biogeography in the Bonneville Basin | Eleven fish species were identified from Homestead Cave, Utah. The remains, concentrated in the lowest stratum of the deposit, were accumulated by owls between approximately 11,200 and 10,100 14C yr B.P. and likely represent fish associated with the final die-off of the Lake Bonneville fauna.

Ehleringer, James R. | Patterns of local and nonlocal water resource use across the western U.S. determined via stable isotope intercomparisons | In the western U.S., the mismatch between public water demands and natural water availability necessitates large interbasin transfers of water as well as groundwater mining of fossil aquifers. Here we identify probable situations of nonlocal water use in both space and time based on isotopic compari... | | 2014-01-01 |

Sperry, John S. | Vulnerability to xylem cavitation and the distribution of sonoran desert vegetation | We studied 15 riparian and upland Sonoran desert species to evaluate how the limitation of xylem pressure (Vx) by cavitation corresponded with plant distribution along a moisture gradient. Riparian species were obligate riparian trees (Fraxinus velutina, Populus fremontii, and Salix gooddingii), nat... | Comparative approach; species distribution; xylem conducting efficency | 2000 |
