The abundance and distribution of fishes in the cooling-water canal system of an electric generating station : with emphasis on the effect of cooling towers
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)Trawl collections were taken from June 1974 to September 1975 to determine the abundance and distribution of fishes in the canal system of the Houston Lighting & Power P.H. Robinson Generating Station with emphasis on ... -
The effects of exposure to water soluble fractions of crude oil on the histology and selected histochemical parameters of the liver of Atlantic croaker
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)Micropogon undulatus L. (Atlantic croaker) were sampled from an estuary and selected offshore sites in the Gulf of Mexico. Groups of five fish from the estuarine sample were exposed to 5% and 10% dilutions of the water ... -
Life history and susceptibility of fishes in Galveston Bay, Texas to power-plant cooling-water operations
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Seasonal occurrence, abundance and susceptibility to cooling-water operations were determined for 89 species of fish occurring in intake and discharge canals of the P. H. Robinson Generating Station on Galveston Bay, Texas ... -
Responses of zebra fish, Brachydanio rerio, to behavior-altering chemicals
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A new bioassay for assessing the behavioral responses of aquatic animals to chemical stimulants is described. The assay combines an octagonal fluviarium, capable of providing up to eight discrete plumes of treated water, ... -
Seasonal abundance and distribution of marine fishes at a hot-water discharge in Galveston Bay, Texas
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)Biological and hydrological data were collected once each month January 1968-December 1969 at 11 offshore (trawl) and 6 beach (seine) stations in the discharge area of the P.H. Robinson Generating Station at Galveston Bay, ... -
The seasonal distribution of macrobenthos and sediments chronically impacted by oil/gas field produced water
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Little is known about how climatic events (i.e., heavy rain, drought, etc.) inhibit or enhance movement of petroleum hydrocarbon laden sediments in estaurine systems and how this in turn effects the macrobenthic populations ... -
Uptake of ¹⁰⁹Cd and ²⁰³Hg from particulates, dissolved medium, and food by Mysidopsis almyra : a marine hypopelagic mysid
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Surface biouptake of particulate ¹⁰⁹Cd and ²⁰³Hg by the mysid Mysidopsis almyra was investigated. Uptake from a medium with particulates prepared from a natural marine sediment slurry spiked with ¹⁰⁹Cd and ²⁰³Hg in the ...
