Hansen, Nels Edward (Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)Mineral nutrients imported in composted dairy manure (CDM) and municipal biosolid (CMB) amendments for highway-rights-of-way and urban landscapes can pose a threat to surface water quality. Treatments were developed to ...
-
Bazan, Roberto (2011-02-22)Understanding groundwater recharge rates has direct relevance for management of the Edwards Aquifer, which serves as the main source of fresh water for the city of San Antonio and surrounding communities. As population ...
-
Husmoen, Derek Howard (2012-07-16)Intensive biomass production in emerging bioenergy systems could increase nonpoint-source sediment and nutrient losses and impair surface and groundwater quality. Recycling biochar, a charcoal byproduct from pyrolysis of ...
-
Taucer, Philip Isaiah (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Two experimental rainfall simulation plots in the Edwards Aquifer region of Texas were established to measure the effects of brush clearing on surface and subsurface water movement pathways. Multi-stage rainfall simulations ...
-
McDonald, Brandon Tieman (Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)Removal of manure from dairies to sites less prone to point-source nutrient pollution is an option for dealing with dairy confined animal feeding operation wastes. Applications of dairy manure waste to turfgrass sod can ...
-
Choi, In Ho (Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)A total maximum daily load (TMDL) assessment in the Upper North Bosque River (UNBR) has mandated reductions of soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP). The large concentrations of dairies in the UNBR watershed have been identified ...
-
Dean, Dex Daniel (2014-12-15)Swales in wetland complexes can provide evidence of hydrologic connectivity for wetlands on the Texas Gulf Coast, supporting the idea that many coastal wetlands in Texas are vitally connected to navigable waters covered ...
-
Long, Di (2012-10-19)The overall objective of the dissertation was to improve the spatial and temporal representation and retrieval accuracy of evapotranspiration (ET) using satellite imagery. Specifically, (1) aiming at improving the spatial ...
-
Shen, Li (2009-05-15)With the increase in human population, water resources have become more and more precious. A comprehensive study of water yield characteristics is imperative, especially in water-limited semiarid regions. The objective of ...
-
Schnell, Ronnie Wayne (2009-05-15)Land application of large, volume-based rates of municipal biosolids (MB) enhances soil physical properties and provides an alternative to disposal in landfills. Yet, topdressing or incorporation of the volume-based rates ...
-
Huang, Yun (2009-06-02)In dryland regions, where water is a limited resource, land use/land cover has undergone and continues to undergo significant change mainly due to human activities. The nature of runoff from dryland regions and the influence ...
-
Damodaram, Chandana (2011-02-22)Land development transforms the natural landscape and impacts in stream ecosystems and downstream communities as it alters the natural flow regime. An increase in impervious areas results in higher volumes of storm water ...
-
Clouse, Randy Wayne (Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)Limited water supplies for agriculture in the Texas High Plains will require new irrigation technologies and techniques for agriculture to continue in this area. The potential for using one such technology, site-specific ...
-
Schnell, Ronnie Wayne (2011-10-21)Bioresources are generated in a variety of environments and each presents unique risks and benefits associated with land application. Bioresources from livestock, urban and bioenergy systems were selected and evaluated ...
-
Porter, Shane Courtney (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)The thicketization of the semi-arid region of the United States has resulted in a dramatic change allowing invasive woody species to dominate the landscape with an unknown impact to the water budget. This landscape ...
-
Bhatia, Nikhil (2017-07-25)Quantification of changing climatic regimes is essential for managing regional water resources systems. Climatic variations have resulted in intensified wet periods and frequent extreme precipitation events in the state ...
-
Afinowicz, Jason D.; Munster, Clyde L.; Wilcox, Bradford P. Wilcox (Texas Water Resources Institute, 2003)Brush control strategies have been implemented for many traditional grasslands that have been impaired by wooded species. However, little information is known concerning what site specific characteristics may be most ...
-
Gregory, Lucas Frank (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Increasing demand for water supplies in semi-arid regions, such as San Antonio, has sparked an interest in potential recharge management through brush control. Two shallow caves under woody plant cover in northern Bexar ...
-
Stewart, George Russell (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The Upper North Bosque River (UNBR) watershed is under a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) mandate to reduce Phosphorus (P) due to excess nutrients in the watershed. To address these problems, Texas A&M University researchers ...
