Exercise 21.29 Melanoma
L. Naldi et al., "Pigmentary traits, modalities of sun reaction, history of sunburns, and melanocytic nevi as risk factors for cutaneous Malignant melanoma in the italian population: resluts of a collaborative case-control study," Cancer, 88 (2000), pp. 2703-2710.

Exercise 17.33 Cockroach
This example is based on information in D. L. Shankland et al., "The effect of 5-thio-D-glucose on insect development and its absorption by insects," Journal of Insect Physiology, 14 (1968), pp. 63-72.

Exercise 17.34 Trees
Data provided by Jason Hamilton, University of Illinois. The study is reported in E. H. DeLucia et al., "Net primary production of a forest ecosystem with experimental CO2 enhancement," Science, 284 (1999), pp. 1177-1179. Note that resampling methods cannot remove the variation due to random sampling of the original data. no method for inference can be trusted with n=3. In this study, each observation is very costly, so the small n is inevitable.

Exercise 17.38 Oil
J. M. Jobe and H. Jobe, "A statistical approach for additional infill development," Energy Exploration and Exploitation, 18 (2000), pp 89-103, and Lake Michigan Federation, 2001 publication, "The case against new Great Lakes oil and gas drilling: Michigan fails to clean up oil and gas pollution," found at www.lakemichigan.org.

Exercise 17.39 Weeds
H. B. Meyers, "Investigations of the life history of the velvetleaf seed beetle, Althaeus folkertsi Kingsolver," MS thesis, Purdue University, 1996. The 95% t interval is 1227.9 to 2507.6. A 95% bootstrap BCa interval is 1444 to 2718, confirming that t inference is inaccurate for these data.
