A Hydrological Model of Harrington Sound, Bermuda and its Surrounding Cave Systems
(2013-04-23)Harrington Sound, located in east central Bermuda, is almost entirely enclosed by land except for a 26.4 m wide channel called Flatts Inlet. This limited connection to the open ocean restricts Harrington Sound’s tides, ... -
Deep Water Mixing Prevents Harmful Algal Bloom Formation: Implications for Managed Fisheries Refugia
(2012-10-19)Inflows affect water quality, food web dynamics, and even the incidence of harmful algal blooms. It may be that inflows can be manipulated to create refuge habitat for biota trying to escape poor environmental conditions, ... -
A distributed dynamic watershed model
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A distributed watershed model was developed to mathematically simulate routing overland and channel flow for a single-event storm. The watersheds used in the study were subdivided into rectangular grid elements. All ... -
Environmentally related water trading, transfers and environmental flows: welfare, water demand and flows
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)This dissertation reports on economic studies of Texas Interbasin Water Transfers (IBT) as a way to lessen expected water shortages, Texas minimum freshwater inflows requirements (FWIB) to protect environmental flows and ... -
Evaluation of Scale Issues in SWAT
(2010-07-14)In Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), oftentimes, Critical Source Area (CSA), the minimum upstream drainage area that is required to initiate a stream, is used to subdivide a watershed. In the current literature, CSA ... -
An event-oriented hourly precipitation model
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)A simulation model of hourly rainfall amounts was developed to provide hourly precipitation input to a water balance model. The hourly rainfall model consists of four parts: (1) daily rainfall occurrence, (2) event rainfall ... -
Hydrologic Impacts of Climate and Land Use Changes in the West Fork San Jacinto River of Texas
(2018-07-03)Changes to climate and land use/land cover (LULC) are expected to be a source of uncertainty to streamflows in the Gulf Coastal Plains of Texas. Additionally, the city of Houston, Texas, is expected to experience spreading ... -
Hydrologic Impacts of Climate and Land Use Changes in the West Fork San Jacinto River of Texas
(2018-07-03)Changes to climate and land use/land cover (LULC) are expected to be a source of uncertainty to streamflows in the Gulf Coastal Plains of Texas. Additionally, the city of Houston, Texas, is expected to experience spreading ... -
Modeling the Hydrologic Impact of Arundo Donax on the Headwaters of the Nueces River Using the Swat Model
(2014-08-06)The invasive species Arundo donax (hereafter Arundo), has invaded the riparian zones of the Rio Grande River and the rivers of the Texas Hill Country over the last two decades. Arundo, also known as the giant cane, is a ... -
Salt Marsh Hydrology and Restoration
(2017-07-11)Hydrologic changes have affected coastal ecosystem sustainability along the Texas coast and throughout the Gulf of Mexico. Human utilization of coastal ecosystems has led to the alteration of tidal hydrology. These ecosystems ... -
Texas Brazos River Flow and Mussel Growth Reconstructions Using Stable Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Carbon Isotopes and Trace Elements
(2015-12-14)The interaction between drought and river regulation is monitored to better understand river flow mixing, evaporation, and surface-groundwater exchange in changing regional climates and in increasingly regulated waterways. ... -
The Control of Igneous Lithology on Step Pools in Alpine Streams: San Juan Mountains, CO
(2017-05-17)Step-pool sequences have long been studied in high-gradient streams for the application in erosion control, ecology, and restoration projects. Step-pool sequences are defined as an alternating series of clasts and pools, ... -
Thecal morphology of selected species of Dinophysis (dinoflagellata) from the Gulf of Mexico and related hydrography
Detailed descriptions of the thecal plates of ten species of the genus Dinophysis, one of which is new, are given. Disclosure of a small plate, reported for the first time, necessitates a new plate formula and raises ...
