Lost and found: Louisiana’s coastal prairies Lost and found: Louisiana’s coastal prairies

It’s hard to fathom, but in just 250 years, some 2.5 million acres of coastal prairie that once blanketed in southwest Louisiana have dwindled to just 200 in scattered parcels. The journals of early settlers give us a peek at what it was like: “plentiful game,” “seemingly infinite range for livestock forage,” “long growing season.” As the human population grew, with its concomitant...

Estimating the susceptibility of surface water in Texas to nonpoint-source contamination by use of logistic regression modeling Estimating the susceptibility of surface water in Texas to nonpoint-source contamination by use of logistic regression modeling

In the State of Texas, surface water (streams, canals, and reservoirs) and ground water are used as sources of public water supply. Surface-water sources of public water supply are susceptible to contamination from point and nonpoint sources. To help protect sources of drinking water and to aid water managers in designing protective yet cost-effective and risk-mitigated monitoring...

Oxidation-reduction processes in ground water at Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant, Dallas, Texas Oxidation-reduction processes in ground water at Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant, Dallas, Texas

Concentrations of trichloroethene in ground water at the Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant in Dallas, Texas, indicate three source areas of chlorinated solvents?building 1, building 6, and an off-site source west of the facility. The presence of daughter products of reductive dechlorination of trichloroethene, which were not used at the facility, south and southwest of the source...

Herbicides and herbicide degradation products in upper midwest agricultural streams during august base-flow conditions Herbicides and herbicide degradation products in upper midwest agricultural streams during august base-flow conditions

Herbicide concentrations in streams of the U.S. Midwest have been shown to decrease through the growing season due to a variety of chemical and physical factors. The occurrence of herbicide degradation products at the end of the growing season is not well known. This study was conducted to document the occurrence of commonly used herbicides and their degradation products in Illinois...

Fish faunal resurgence in Lake Nabugabo, East Africa Fish faunal resurgence in Lake Nabugabo, East Africa

In Lake Nabugabo, Uganda, a small satellite of the equatorial Lake Victoria, approximately 50% of the indigenous fish species disappeared from the open waters subsequent to establishment of the introduced predatory Nile perch ( Lates niloticus ). However, several of these species persisted in wetland refugia. Over the past decade, Nile perch in Lake Nabugabo have been intensively fished...
