      Herdener, Meredyth Elise
      Decreased freshwater inflow due to damming of the Nueces and Frio Rivers has increased salinity in Nueces Bay, caused Rincon Bayou to become a reverse estuary, and disturbed the overall hydrology of Corpus Christi Bay. ...

    • Is Salinity Variability a Benthic Disturbance? 
      Van Diggelen, Amanda (2014-05-07)
      Estuaries are subjected to variable salinity regimes governed by variable freshwater inflow and tidal regimes. Estuaries are less saline near the river (source of fresh water); salinities increase towards the inlet of the ...
    • A Meta-analysis of Mercury Levels in Lavaca Bay Texas 
      Pillado, Maria C. (2014-05-07)

    • Relative Habitat Value Of Alternative Substrates Used In Oyster Reef Restoration 
      George, Lindsey Marie (2013-08-08)
      Oyster reef habitats have declined from historic levels due to a variety of reasons, including overharvest, disease, and degraded water quality. The harvesting of oysters has led to a loss of reef habitat for both oysters ...
    • Temporal and spatial patterns of anthropogenic disturbance at McMurdo Station, Antarctica

    • Wastewater Discharge, Nutrient Loading, and Dissolved Oxygen Dynamics in a Shallow Texas Bay 
      Schroer, Lee Allen (2014-05-07)
      In Oso Bay, a wastewater treatment plant acts as a source of eutrophication and may have measureable impact on the health of the bay. The objectives of this study were to create a model for modeling dissolved oxygen ...
