Sediment water exchange of trace metals and nutrients in Galveston Bay, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The benthic fluxes of several trace metals and nutrients were determined for three stations along the salinity gradient in the Trinity Bay region of Galveston Bay, Texas, using whole core squeezing techniques in conjunction ...
Arthropod population and community dynamics in turfgrass
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Non-target arthropod and nematode populations in ographics. fungal and nematode treated bermudagrass were contrasted with populations in a chlorpyrifos and an untreated control treatment. Fifty-five arthropod families or ...
Growth of yearling fillies fed alfalfa or soybean meal
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Sixteen Quarter Horse yearling fillies were used in a 112-d randomized, block experiment to determine the efficacy of alfalfa hay protein to support growth in young horses. The yearlings were paired according to weight and ...
Design Studio Organizer: software development to facilitate architectural design studio activities
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Computer-aided design is active in architectural practice. Thus, it has become required training in architectural education. While offering accuracy and effectiveness for computer-aided architectural design, computer ...
Oxygen isotope records of carboniferous seasonality on the Russian platform
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Seven isotopic and eight trace element (TE) profiles across shell growth lines are presented, based on over 1000 stable isotope and electron microprobe analyses on six brachiopod shells (Gigantoproductus), to quantify ...
A potential vorticity diagnostic approach to upper-level frontogenesis within a devloping baroclinic wave
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
According to the traditional approach, upper-level frontogenesis results from a geostrophic forcing and its ageostrophic response acting in concert to tighten the horizontal temperature gradient. Particular focus is placed ...
Economic impacts of wild hogs on selected Texas agriculture operations
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
At the present, wild hogs exist in Texas in free-ranging populations numbering in the millions. These populations continue to expand, and now are pervasive in almost all land resource areas of the state. Wild hogs have a ...
Development of a high-frame-rate high-resolution particle image velocimetry system and applications to the characterization of synthetic jet actuators
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This thesis presents the hardware development for two high-frame-rate particle image velocimetry systems. One of them is based on the use of a high-speed film camera, with a frame-rate of up to 10,000 frames per second and ...
Determination of phosphorus composition and availability from various feedstuffs to channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus)
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The availability of phosphorus in fish diets is an raphics. important consideration in aquaculture because phosphorus excretion by fish may influence eutrophication of the culture system or receiving water, as phosphorus ...
Development of an ion drift chamber for Laser Induced Fluorescence studies
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The use of Laser Induced Fluorescence to image ions in a gas has been proposed for a possible new type of subatomic particle detector.1 As a means to investigate this idea, an ion drift chamber has been developed that ...
