90sr and 137cs in soil and biota of fallout areas in southern nevada and utah.	measurements of 90sr and 137cs in soil, vegetation and small mammals were made periodically at sites in southern nevada and utah that were contaminated by radioactive fallout from nuclear detonations at the nevada test site (nts) as well as from global sources. results from a survey in 1980 indicate that both of these fallout-derived radionuclides have remained primarily within the top 5-cm layer of undisturbed soil in these arid land areas. trace amounts of 90sr and 137cs were measured in soil ...	1983	6885473
population genetic structure of ixodes pacificus (acari:ixodidae) using allozymes.	genetic analysis of the population structure of the western blacklegged tick, ixodes pacificus cooley & kohls, was conducted using allozymes. this vector tick transmits the lyme disease spirochete, borrelia burgdorferi johnson, schmid, hyde, steigerwalt & brenner, in the far-western united states. it ranges from british columbia to baja california and disjunct populations are present in oregon, nevada, utah, and arizona. host-seeking adult ticks were collected from vegetation across the range of ...	1997	9220679
the assessment of radiation exposures in native american communities from nuclear weapons testing in nevada.	native americans residing in a broad region downwind from the nevada test site during the 1950s and 1960s received significant radiation exposures from nuclear weapons testing. because of differences in diet, activities, and housing, their radiation exposures are only very imperfectly represented in the department of energy dose reconstructions. there are important missing pathways, including exposures to radioactive iodine from eating small game. the dose reconstruction model assumptions about ...	2000	10795343
haemodipsus brachylagi n. sp. (phthiraptera: anoplura: polyplacidae), a new sucking louse from the pygmy rabbit in nevada.	the male and female of haemodipsis brachylagi n. sp. (phthiraptera: anoplura) are described from specimens collected from a pygmy rabbit, brachylagus idahoensis (merriam) (lagomorpha: leporidae), from nevada. morphological features that differentiate the new species from other known species of haemodipsus are elucidated, and an identification key to both sexes of the 3 species now known from this genus in north america is included. geographical distributions of the other 4 species of haemodipsus ...	2007	17539405
