(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)This investigation of consolidation-induced changes in macrostructures is based on (1) the use of stereo X-ray radiography to map the macrostructures prior to and following consolidation and (2) a comparison of changes ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)A system of coupled, normal mode equations describing a two-layer ocean basin of variable depth was derived from the quasi-hydrostatic equations of motion using a general form of the method of Veronis and Stommel (1956). ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Integrated high resolution seismic and core data from the Texas outer continental shelf and upper continental slope were used to reconstruct the late Pleistocene geologic history of the area. Seismically aided correlation ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)A taxonomic analysis of luminescent bacteria from the light organs of five different species (four genera) of fishes of the family Macrouridae, 39 non-symbiotic luminescent isolants from nearshore and offshore marine ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)The relationship between recruitment seasonality and ordination of alternative management policies for the Texas brown shrimp (Penaeus aztecus) fishery is explored through utilization of a general stochastic simulation ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)The early geologic history of the DeSoto Canyon Salt Basin (DSCSB) in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico can be explained by Mesozoic extensional processes associated with a rifted, passively subsiding continental margin. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)The objectives of this project included (a) characterizing microbiological and chemical parameters of the effluents from typical Texas shrimp offloading facilities, (b) determining the impact of the effluents on the quality ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Late Pleistocene to Middle Miocene turbidite sands (0 to 900 m depth below seafloor) from Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Leg 10 Sites 85, 90, and 91 have an average framework, grain composition of 30% quartz, 25% feldspar, ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Copepod species and major groups of zooplankton were identified from 513 samples taken at 20 stations on 5 transects in the coastal waters of the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. Monthly samples, using oblique tows and a GULF ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)Analyses of nearshore current, wind, and hydrographic data collected along the upper Texas coast are presented. Results show that hydrographic variations due to advection have a pronounced effect on the overall hydrography ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)The present study details the occurrence, distribution and origins of shallow water marine gammarideans in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea. One hundred and forty species are diagnosed or discussed and keys to the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Dredged sediments from the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway near Galveston, Texas were used as a substrate in the construction of an artificial marsh. Substrate chemical and physical properties (total Kjeldahl nitrogen, ammonium, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)The Late Pleistocene sediments in the deep basin of the Gulf of Mexico are marked by several episodes of the preservation of aragonitic pteropods. Pteropods are not preserved on the sea floor of the abyssal Gulf today nor ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Natural and cultured populations of P. aztecus and P. setiferus and cultured populations of P. stylirostris and P. vannamei were examined for ecto- and endosymbionts. The 18 symbionts which follow were identified from these ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)The regional distribution of salt in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico reflects a complex interplay between tectonic basin architecture and subsequent salt kinematics. Persistent northwest-southeast structural trends across ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Remote sensing of ocean waters, using the Nimbus-7 Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS), in the northern Gulf of Mexico during a 17 month period (November 1978 - March 1980) showed large variability in the spatial and temporal ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)The net longshore transport of sand along Bolivar Peninsula and Galveston Island during 1975 was toward the southwest at rates that varied from 1.52 x 10 ⁵ yds³/yr at Sea Isle on Galveston Island to 5.4 x 10 ⁴ yds³/yr at ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Examination of extensive multichannel and single-channel data across the Mississippi Fan, Gulf of Mexico reveals that at least eight seismic sequences comprise the Pliocene/Pleistocene section (sequences I-VIII, oldest to ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)Compressional wave velocities, shear strength, and related physical properties were determined in twelve sediment cores form various physiographic provinces in the Gulf of Mexico. Sound velocities at 25°C and 185 kHz range ...
