Liljeborgiid Amphipods from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea
(Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science, 1979)The family Liljeborgiidae is represented in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea by two genera and five species. One species, Listriella barnardi Wigley, 1963, has previously been described from the east coast of North ... -
Foghorn (publication)

Sampling Design and Enumeration Statistics for Bacteria Extracted from Marine Sediments
(American Society for Microbiology, 1982)The spatial and temporal distributions of marine bacteria were studied at both a muddy and a sandy subtidal site in North Inlet, S.C. The sampling design was hierarchical, since subsampling (by a dilution series) of the ... -
Arctic Sea Ice Fauna1 Assemblage: First Approach to Description and Source of the Underice Meiofauna
(InterResearch, 1982)The ice meiofaunal assemblage in shallow Stefansson Sound off the northern coast of Alaska included Polychaeta, Nematoda. Rotifera and Crustacea. The crustaceans conlprised calanoid copepods, nauplii, 2 species of harpacticoids ... -
Live controls for radioisotope tracer food chain experiments using meiofauna
(InterResearch, 1983)malin poisoned samples are inadequate for measuring the amount of label to be subtracted as control values for certain food chain studies that employ radioactive tracers. In some studies, tracer is added just before ... -
In situ measurement of meiobenthic grazing rates on sediment bacteria and edaphic diatoms
(InterResearch, 1984)A radioactive tracer technique was used to measure meiofaunal grazing on bacteria and diatom communities in natural sediments. Radioactive '4C-glucose and 14C-bicarbonate were used to label heterotrophs (bacteria) and ... -
Benthic metabolism in a natural coastal petroleum seep
(InterResearch, 1986)The rates of 3 processes known to be mediated by microbial metabolic activity were measured in the sediments of a shallow-water (18 m depth) natural petroleum seep and a nearby non- seep area near Santa Barbara, California. ... -

Temporal variability and the relationship between benthic meiofaunal and microbial populations of a natural coastal petroleum seep
(Yale Peabody Museum, 1987)Previous studies of the Isla Vista petroleum seep in the Santa Barbara Channel found much higher abundances of macrofauna and concentrations of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in sediments near petroleum seepage compared to ... -
Vertical distribution of microbial and meiofaunal populations in sediments of a natural coastal hydrocarbon seep
(Yale Peabody Museum, 1989)We studied the vertical distribution of microbes and meiofauna in natural hydrocarbon seep sediments to determine if there was a relationship between profiles of benthic trophic structure and the unique biogeochemical ... -
Dwarf surfclam Mulinia lateralis (Say, 1822) populations and feeding during the Texas brown tide event
(National Shellfisheries Association, 1993)In 1990, there was an unusual brown tide bloom of an aberrant Chrysophyte sp, in Baffin Bay and Laguna Madre near Corpus Christi, Texas. Coincident with the bloom was a dramatic loss of shellfish in Baffin Bay and Laguna ... -
Folding patterns of immunoglobulin molecules identified by urea gradient electrophoresis.
(ASBMB , 1994)The reversible denaturant-induced unfolding of immunoglobulin molecules has been analyzed by transverse urea gradient gel electrophoresis and the effects that urea-induced unfolding exerts on the functional properties ... -
Incorporation of brown tide into an estuarine food web
(InterResearch, 1997)In Laguna Madre, Texas, USA, a monospecific brown tide bloom began in January 1990 and was still persisting at the time of this writing. Immediately following the start of the bloom, abundance, biomass and diversity of ... -
Recruitment of Atlantic croaker, Micropogonias undulatus: Do postsettlement processes disrupt or reinforce initial patterns of settlement?
(NOAA, 1999)Understanding the relative importance of pre- and postsettlement processes is critical to understanding the population dynamics of marine fishes. Our goals in this study were 1) to examine habitat preference and habitat ... -
Utilization of estuarine organic matter during growth and migration by juvenile brown shrimp Penaeus aztecus in a South Texas estuary
(InterResearch, 2000)The trophic dynamic links of migratory juvenile brown shrimp Penaeus aztecus were investigated along the South Texas coast from the Aransas Pass to Corpus Christi and Nueces Bay and to the nursery ground in the Nueces ... -
Population dynamics of the nonindigenous brown mussel Perna perna in the Gulf of Mexico compared to other world-wide populations
(InterResearch, 2001)Texas Gulf of Mexico populations of the marine mytilid Perna perna (Linnaeus, 1758) were sampled monthly on Fish Pass Jetty (FP) (27°41¹N) from September 1993 to February 1995 and Mansfield Pass Jetty (MP) (26°34¹N) from ... -
Ecology of nesting seabirds on the Campeche Bank Islands, southeastern Gulf of México
(Smithsonian Institute, 2002)Seabirds of the Campeche Bank islands in the Gulf of Mexico were surveyed during 1986. Eight of 12 permanently emergent islands had active seabird nesting colonies during the study period from winter through summer. Nine ... -
Growth of newly settled red drum Sciaenops ocellatus in different estuarine habitat types
(InterResearch, 2002)We examined growth of recently settled juvenile red drum in salt marsh, seagrass, oyster reef, and on nonvegetated bottom areas in the Galveston Bay system of Texas (USA). We estimated growth using otolith microstructure ... -
Finding a voice in the digital classroom: The effects of asynchronous discussion on language acquisition and communication apprehension among secondary ESOL students in South Texas
(2010)Students who are classified as ESOL at the secondary level may face various factors that prevent participation in class thus inhibiting second language acquisition. The purpose of the study was to determine if asynchronous ...
