In the United States, a strong, easterly wind, often locally referred to as canyon wind, blowing out of the mouths of the canyons of the Wasatch Mountains onto the plains of Utah.

Wasatch winds... are produced by a strong large-scale west to east pressure gradient and are best developed when there is a large high over Wyoming or a vigorous low to the west or southwest in Utah or Arizona. In extreme cases they can exceed hurricane force. The strong winds are mainly limited to the canyons, especially in winter, but in some circumstances extend beyond them onto the plain.

  • Tectonics
DEF

A curved downward-flattening fault, generally concave upward.

OBS

Listric faults may be characterized by normal or reverse separation.

OBS

Current debates about the listric(concave upwards) versus planar geometry of normal faults in extensional terranes are partly due to the lack of reliable depth images from seismic reflection data. A recent example of this controversy has arisen concerning the geometry and nature of the Sevier Desert normal fault in west-central Utah(Von Tish et al., 1985; Anders and Christie-Blick, 1994). The presence of shallow-dipping normal faults is one of the most important criteria for recognizing extensional regimes(e. g., Shelton, 1984). In fact, substantial extension can only be accomplished by initially shallow faults or by faults that rapidly rotate toward shallower dips as extension proceeds(Wernicke and Burchfiel, 1982).

SFP builds on protective factors by improving family relationships, parenting skills, and improving the youth's social and life skills. It is designed for families with children ages 6 to 10 and has been modified for African-American families, Asian/Pacific Islanders in Utah and Hawaii, rural families, early teens in the Midwest, and Hispanic families. Although originally developed for children of high-risk substance abusers, SFP is widely used for non-substance abusing parents.

Evolutionists and economists are raiding each other's theories. The result is a new and encouraging view of human nature. Economists and Darwinian biologists talk the same language, borrow each other's techniques and come to similar conclusions. By exploring a common ground(focus on the individual), a new discipline of evolutionary economics is being born. Some examples : J. Hirshleifer(UCLA) has used evolutionary arguments to explain when and why human beings resort to anarchy and warfare. E. Leigh(Smithsonian Tropical Institute-Panama) resorts to Adam Smith to explain how conflicts between genes inside cells are resolved. A. Rogers(University of Utah) suggests that long-term interest rates can be predicted from the biology of humans. Leda Cosmides, psychologist at UCSB, has used evolutionary logic to explain human reasoning in terms of social bargaining.

The territory of the Western Shoshoni included central and western Idaho, northwestern Utah, central and northeastern Nevada, and Death Valley and Panamint Valley of California, largely barren and unproductive areas. They were sometimes referred to as "Diggers, "from their habit of digging plant roots with a stick as an important means of subsistence. Another name applied was Shoshoko, meaning "walkers", to distinguish them from the horse-owning Shoshoni.

OBS

Digger : Said by Powell to be the English translation of Nuanuints, the name of a small tribe near St George, s. w. Utah,. It was the only Paiute tribe practising agriculture, hence the original signification of the name, "digger". In time the name was applied to every tribe known to use roots extensively for food and hence to be "diggers. "It thus included very many of the tribes of California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona, tribes speaking widely different languages and embracing perhaps a dozen distinct linguistic stocks. As the root-eaters were supposed to represent a low type of Indian, the term speedily became one of opprobrium [pejorative].

French

Domaine(s)
  • Patrimoine
OBS

Il n'y a pas de traduction officielle pour «Digger» parce qu'il s'agit d'une tribu qui n'aurait jamais eu affaires avec les explorateurs francophones. Les peuples de cette tribu résident pour la plupart dans les États de Nevada et d'Utah dans le sud-ouest des États-Unis. Ils parlent une langue d'origine Uto-Aztèque, langue qui a plus d'affinité avec les autochtones du Mexique qu'avec ceux des Plaines canadiennes. Il existe pourtant un nom français pour désigner la division amérindienne à laquelle les «Diggers» appartiennent : Shoshones de l'Ouest - équivalent le plus proche, quoique imprécis. Au besoin, on peut toujours utiliser le terme anglais en expliquant en bas de page l'étymologie du terme «digger».
