Oscillating satellites about the straight line equilibrium points.
(1952)The problem as studied in this thesis is the behavior of a satellite at the three equilibrium points. When a satellite is displaced from rest at one of these points it will either oscillate or rapidly leave the system. The ... -

(1965)The purpose of this study was to interpret the depositional framework of the original Cisco Group, Upper Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian, in the shallow subsurface of North-central Texas, Stratigraphic interpretation was ... -
Age and growth of the white crappie, Pomoxis Annularis Rafinesque, in Lake Waco, Texas.
(1969)The major collection of white crappie was from 17 July 1967, to 10 April 1968, by traps and gill nets. Other fish were taken by anglers and seines in June 1968. A total of 1142 fish were included in this study. Spawning ... -
Uptake and utilization of alanine-1-14C by freshwater algae.
(1969)Experiments were conducted x^ith Chlorella pyrenoidosa, Cosmarium formosulum, and Gloeocapsa sp. to determine their relative heterotrophic capacity at various conditions. Cultures were incubated in nutrient media with ... -
Phytoplankton production in a central Texas reservoir.
(1969)Phytoplankton production and other environmental variables were measured from June to November, 1968 to determine factors affecting production and trophic status of the producer community in a shallow, polymictic, central ... -
Pond succession on the Kaibab Plateau, Arizona.
(1969)Quantitative data were obtained for a serai comparison of five sinkhole ponds on the Kaibab Plateau, Arizona. Species diversity, community metabolism, primary production, and relative serai rank were assayed. Information ... -
Some effects of thermal history on the largemouth black bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepede), of two central Texas reservoirs receiving power plant effluents.
(1972)Mean annual growth of the first three age classes of largemouth black bass from Tradinghouse Reservoir was near the average growth reported in the literature for southern waters. Largemouth black bass collected from the ... -
The ostracode Cypridopsis vidua: physiological response due to thermal stress.
(1973)Upper temperature effects were measured on the mean oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, ingestion, assimilation, and egestion rates of the ostracode Cypridopsis vidua. to determine positive or negative effects ... -
Structure and photosynthetic response to abrupt thermal stress of a periphyton algal community colonized in a power plant discharge canal.
(1976)Tremendous increases in energy needs have led to construction of many new power plants. Effects of heated power plant effluents on aquatic organisms have not been clearly established, Periphyton community structure was ... -

The effects of phosphorus starvation on phosphate storage, three storage products and cellular organelles of Chlorella pyrenoidosa.
(1983)The ultrastructure of phosphorus starved, phosphorus restored and total nutrient cells of Chlorella pyrenoidosa was described by i morphometric analysis. The rate of phosphorus incorporation into polyphosphate bodies ... -
The effect of the form and concentration of nitrogen on geosmin production by an aquatic actinomycete (streptomyces isolate WM1C1).
(1983)Actinomycetes are organisms that produce geosmin which is one of the organic compounds responsible for the earthy (musty) odor in water. This study was designed to isolate an actinomycete, confirm it as a geosmin ... -
