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 ...
Energy analysis of cotton gin waste
(1978)
The disposal of cotton gin waste from the gin site has become an economic factor in the efficient operation of a cotton gin. Energy costs are rising and the possibility of curtailment of energy supplies, primarily natural ...
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 ...
A regional adjustment model to estimate the economic implications of declining groundwater in the High Plains
(1978)
The Northern High Plains of Texas and Western Oklahoma has experienced rapid economic development due primarily to the development of groundwater for irrigation. Prior to irrigation development, this area of Texas and ...
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, ...
Influence of surface area and morphology on the oxidation of pyrite from Texas lignite
(1978)
Lignite is currently strip mined in Freestone County for fuel in electric generating plants. Similar mining operations will be conducted in the Milam County area in the near future. Lignite core samples were obtained from ...
Identification of prerequisite competencies needed by handicapped students for successful entry into a vocational agriculture program
(1978)
Accessibility to vocational programs, such as Production Agriculture I, is an essential element in the preparation of handicapped individuals for productive lives. It is upon this premise that this study is based. Purpose: ...
Influence of honey mesquite and its control on zonal vegetation patterns
(1978)
A study initiated in 1973 explored relationships between honey mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa Torr. var. qlandulosa) and understory vegetation on a deep hardland range site in northcentral Texas. Forage production and ...
A stochastic network simulation model for the Texas certificate of need review process as relates to general hospital bed expansion
(1978)
A review of the literature related to hospital utilization as well as the Texas Certificate of Need (CON) process revealed no comprehensive, consistent method for reviewing CON applications. To overcome this deficiency in ...
Ethnobotany and cultural ecology of prehistoric man in southwest Texas
(1978)
Archeological excavations at Hinds Cave during the summer of 1975 yielded many hundreds of coprolites (desiccated human feces) from stratified lenses in this southwest Texas rockshelter. Radiocarbon dating established the ...
