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
(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 ...
Optimal grain sorghum irrigation strategies in a dynamic, stochastic environment
(1978)
Agricultural production and associated economic effects of irrigation on the Texas High Plains are seriously threatened by a rapidly declining groundwater supply and a swift upward trend in energy costs. To optimize the ...
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 ...
Seasonal abundance and distribution of marine fishes at a hot-water discharge in Galveston Bay, Texas
(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, ...
Effects of evaporative salt water cooling towers on salt spray and salt deposition on surrounding soils
(1978)
Five salt water cooling towers recently constructed near Galveston Bay, Texas have been shown to contribute to salt deposition in the surrounding area. Levels as high as 1200 kg salt/ha/yr were encountered within 100 m of ...
Population characteristics of estuarine decapod crustaceans in intake and discharge areas of the Cedar Bayou Electric Power Station before and during construction and operation
(1977)
Crustacean abundance, distribution and taxonomic composition were determined intake (Tabbs Bay and Cedar Bayou) and discharge (Trinity Bay) areas before operation (October 1969 through September 4, 1970), during operation ...
Zooplankton studies in the Cox Bay, Texas area, before and during early operation of an electric power plant
(1975)
Zooplankton investigations were conducted from November 1969 through September 1971 in the Cox Bay area, part of the Matagorda 3ay System on the central Gulf coast of Texas. Four hundred seventy-- four plankton samples ...
Heat resistance of crustaceans and fishes taken from the intake canal of an estuarine power plant and their predicted survival in the discharge canal
(1977)
Heat resistance times of 10 species of crustaceans representing 5 families and 65 fishes from 32 families were determined during June 1974 through September 1975 to estimate percentage survival in the discharge canal system ...
The compilation of diagrammatic transects and their application to preliminary environmental assessment of water resources development in Texas
(1976)
Water resources development in Texas is primarily of two types, channelization and surface impoundments. Effects of these types of projects are discussed in terms of environmental effects in Texas. With this background, ...
Species composition, abundance and distribution of macro-crustaceans and fishes in the intake area, discharge canal, and cooling lake of the Cedar Bayou electric generating station, near Baytown, Texas
(1978)
Species composition, abundance, and distribution of macro-crustaceans and fishes in the intake area, discharge canal and cooling lake of the Cedar Bayou Electric Generating Station near Baytown, Texas, were analyzed using ...
