This report describes the findings of studies on the relationships between freshwater inflow, salinity, and biological activity in the seven largest estuaries on the Texas coast. A method is described for relating the impact of freshwater inflows to estuarine conditions by the use of three key indicators: inundation frequency of riverine deltaic marsh complexes, mean monthly salinity, and annual commercial fisheries harvests. Using this methodology, estimates are given for the monthly and seasonal freshwater inflows needed to meet three alternative estuarine objectives: ecosystem subsistence, fisheries harvest maintenance, and fisheries harvest enhancement. Alternative means of providing freshwater inflows to the bays and estuaries are discussed.Item Intensive survey of Bray's Bayou.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1981) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Buffalo Bayou - above tidal.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1982) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Cypress Creek, segment 1009.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1980) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Halls Bayou.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1982) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Horsepen Bayou.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1980) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Oyster Creek, segment 1110.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1980) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Sims Bayou.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1982) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of Spring Creek, segment 1008.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1980) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of the Houston Ship Channel segments 1005, 1006, and 1007, Tabbs Bay - segment 2426, San Jacinto Bay - segment 2427, Scott Bay - segment 2429, Burnett Bay - segment 2430.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1982) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Intensive survey of the Trinity River segment 0805.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1984) Texas Department of Water Resources.No abstract availableItem Projected land use maps, year 2000: Trinity Basin.(Texas Department of Water Resources, n.d.)

Review Draft.(Texas Department of Water Resources., 1982) Texas Department of Water Resources.The purposes of this report are to present reported and estimated water use data for 1980, the most recent year for which data are available, and to present projections of future water requirements for each purpose within each county and river basin area of the State. Projections are made for several different growth rates that will be explained later in the text. Projection methods and data sources are briefly summarized. Maps and tables are included.
