Life history and susceptibility of fishes in Galveston Bay, Texas to power-plant cooling-water operations
(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 ...
Effects of rainfall, recruitment, and the operation of the Cedar Bayou Electric Generating Station (Baytown, Texas) on the dynamics of fish and macrocrustacean communities in the brackish intake and discharge waters
(1982)
The impact of the Cedar Bayou Electric Generating Station upon fishes and macrocrustaceans in the intake area, discharge canal, and cooling lake during 1972-1979 was evaluated. Data used to determine relative abundance, ...
Emigration of penaeid shrimp from the once-through cooling lake of Cedar Bayou Steam Electric Generating Station, Baytown, Texas
(1983)
Migration and distribution of two decapod shrimp, Penaeus setiferus and P. aztecus, in the cooling-water system of a power plant on the Texas coast were investigated, with emphasis on the seaward emigration from the cooling ...
Variations in largemouth bass abundance and standing crop in floodwater retarding structures in central Texas
(1983)
Fish communities in 11 Soil Conservation Service floodwater retarding structures were studied to determine factors associated with variations in largemouth bass abundance and standing crop over a 15-month period. Petersen ...
The influence of prescribed burning on nutrition in white-tailed deer on the coastal plain of Texas
(1977)
An isolated area of approximately 2,025 ha of thicketized live oak (Quercus virginiana) savannah was experimentally burned during a 2-year study on the Texas Coastal Plain. Two fall burns (October 1974 and 1975) and a ...
Factors affecting the successful culture of Penaeus stylirostris and Penaeus vannamei at an estuarine power plant site : temperature, salinity, inherent growth variability, damselfly nymph predation, population density and distribution, and polyculture
(1983)
Laboratory and pond research was conducted at a power plant site near the inner end of Galveston Bay, Texas. Of tested salinity levels, 25 ('o)/oo was found the best for both species to resist high lethal temperatures and ...
Interpond and intrapond variation in populations of periphytic cladoceran microcrustacea
(1983)
Periphytic cladoceran microcrustacea were collected from submerged parts of the sprawling emergent plant Ludwigia peploides (Onagraceae) in four ponds in Brazos County, Texas, on 52 dates from 23 February 1981 through 12 ...
Development and evaluation of a culture system suitable for the production of Gulf Killifish (Fundulus grandis Baird and Girard) for live bait in the thermal effluent of a power plant
(1982)
Investigations concerning spawning, hatching and grow-out of Fundulus grandis were conducted in 0.1-ha brackish water ponds in Texas. Studies focused on developing economical feeds, increasing production through improved ...
Evidence and importance of subgrouping behavior in javelina populations in south Texas
(1982)
Subgrouping behavior of javelina populations in two brushland habitats in south Texas was examined from June 1979 through February 1981. This study was couched within an effects of hunting study framework. In each habitat, ...
The influence of dredged material islands in Upper Laguna Madre, Texas on selected seagrasses and macro-benthos
This study was undertaken to gain an insight into the impact that dredged material islands have had on the upper Laguna Madre, Texas and the degree of ecological succession that has taken place since the creation of these ...
