Timescales and Magnitude of Water Quality Change in Three Texas Estuaries Induced by Passage of Hurricane Harvey
(Estuaries and Coasts, 2020-10-14)
Tropical cyclones represent a substantial disturbance to water quality in coastal ecosystems via storm surge, winds, and flooding. However, evidence to date suggests that the impacts of tropical cyclones on water quality ...
A System level analysis of ecosystem responses to hurricane impacts on a coastal region.
(2020-04)
Tropical cyclones are major disturbances for coastal systems. Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Texas, USA, on August 25, 2017 as a category 4 storm. There were two distinct disturbances associated with this storm that ...
Disparate Responses of Carbonate System in Two Adjacent Subtropical Estuaries to the Influence of Hurricane Harvey – A Case Study
(Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020-01-31)
Two adjacent estuaries in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico (GOM) (Mission–Aransas or MAE and Guadalupe–San Antonio or GE), despite their close proximity and similar extents of freshening caused by Hurricane Harvey, exhibited ...
Photomineralization of organic carbon in a eutrophic, semiarid estuary
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-01-28)
The effect of photomineralization on the carbon cycle in a eutrophic, semiarid estuary (Baffin Bay, Texas) was investigated using closed-system incubations. Photochemical production rate of dissolved inorganic carbon ranged ...
Effect of hydrological variability on the biogeochemistry of estuaries across a regional climatic gradient
(Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, 2018-08-15)
Given projected changes in river flow to coastal regions worldwide due to climate change and increasing human freshwater demands, it is necessary to determine the role hydrology plays in regulating the biogeochemistry of ...
Responses of carbonate system and CO2 flux to extended drought and intense flooding in a semiarid subtropical estuary
(Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, 2017-08-14)
Globally, estuaries are considered important CO2 sources to the atmosphere. However, estuarine water carbonate chemistry and CO2 flux studies have focused on temperate and high latitude regions, leaving a significant data ...
Effect of hydrological variability on the biogeochemistry of estuaries across a regional climatic gradient
(Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, 2018-08-15)
Given projected changes in river flow to coastal regions worldwide due to climate change and increasing human freshwater demands, it is necessary to determine the role hydrology plays in regulating the biogeochemistry of ...
Temporal variability and driving factors of the carbonate system in the Aransas Ship Channel, TX, USA: a time series study
(Copernicus Publications, 2021-08-09)
The coastal ocean is affected by an array of co-occurring biogeochemical and anthropogenic processes, resulting in substantial heterogeneity in water chemistry, including carbonate chemistry parameters such as pH and partial ...
