Comparative Chemistry of Thermally Stressed North Lake and Its Water Source, Elm Fork Trinity River

Description: To better understand abiotic dynamics in Southern reservoirs receiving heated effluents, water was analyzed before and after impoundment in 330 ha North Lake. Macronutrients, metals, and chlorinated hydrocarbons were measured. Concentrations of nutrients and metals in sediments were quantified in this 2 yr study. River water prior to impoundment contained 16 times more total phosphorus, and supported 23 times more Selenastrum capricornutum cells in an algal assay than reservoir water. The reser… more

The Dynamics of a Planktonic Microcrustacean Community in a Small North Central Texas Pond Ecosystem

Description: Seven species of planktonic microcrustacea were identified from the North Texas State University Golf Course Pond. Total adult microcrustacean community density, biomass and biocontent, and seasonal cycles of each species were compared with northern populations. Species diversity and evenness indices were highest in summer and lowest in spring. Variations in microcrustacean density showed a positive correlation with density of phytoplankton. Temperature had a direct effect on metabolic rates of… more

Description: Data on the life cycle of Hydropezrla crosbvi were collected from January, 1974, to March, 1976, in Clear Creek, Denton County, Texas. Laboratory investigation helped in establishing instar number, egg incubation and description, and first instar descriptions. Adult Hydroperla crosbyi emerge in February - March when water temperature increases to a mean of 15 C. Eggs undergo a diapause, hatching when decreasing water temperature reaches 18 C in October - November. Maximum growth occurs when wat… more
