  • Sediments and Sedimentary Processes in Lake Houston, Texas
    RICE UNIVERSITY SEDIMENTS AND SEDIMENTARY PROCESSES IN LAKE HOUSTON, TEXAS by JANE MILLER MATTY A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ARTS APPROVED, THESIS COMMITTEE* rw 41 Dr./John B. Anderson Associate Professor of Geology Chairman Dr. Robert B. Dunbar Assistant Professor of ^Geology Dr. Philip B. ^edient Associate Professor of Environ¬ mental Science and Engineering Houston, Texas May, 1984 3 1272 00288 9911 ABSTRACT SEDIMENTS AND SEDIMENTARY PROCESSES IN LAKE HOUSTON, TEXAS Jane M. Matty Lake Houston is a man-made reservoir located northeast of Houston, Texas. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the nature of sediments and sedimentary processes in the lake. Cores were collected throughout the lake and sediment traps placed in strategic locations to collect suspended sediments. Samples were analyzed for grain-size, organic carbon, and a number of trace elements. The volume of the lake has been reduced by 7»8 % during its first 28.5 years, with most of the sediment accumulating i 'A near the mouths of inflowing rivers. Sediment input depends primarily on the intensity of rainfall in the watershed. Sediment movement within the lake is strongly influenced by wave activity which resuspends sediments from shallow areas. The increased residence time due to resuspension allows greater decomposition of organic matter and the release of several trace elements. The principal source of both organic material and trace elements appears to be effluent from sewage treatment plants. Fluctuations in current velocities and the subsequent suspension/deposition of particles may explain variations in coliform bacteria, which occasionally pollute Lake Houston.

  • Chapter 4 – State of the Bay, Third Edition
    CHAPTER 4 – STATE OF THE BAY, THIRD EDITION The Human Role, Present Written & Revised by Lisa A. Gonzalez The segment of the planet Earth called the coastal zone is especially important in the context of diversity and human interactions. This is by far the most populated and urbanized portion of our planet, as well as the richest and among the most perturbed. It is a bit surprising that it is also not the most familiar in concept and dimension, in view of the fact that so many people live within it or near it. —G. Carlton Ray, Sustainable Use of the Global Ocean, (1989) Introduction Human activities in and around Galveston Bay have shaped the watershed for thousands of years. The categories of resource use are wide ranging. From humans’ creation of the first shell middens to the present dredging of numerous navigation channels, human inhabitants have an impact on the bay and its surrounding landscape. As the human population grows, society’s influence on the physical and ecological components of the estuarine system becomes more pronounced. Anthropogenic stresses are placed upon the bay’s natural resources and the ecosystem services that they provide (such as clean air and water, flood attenuation, and wildlife habitat). The stressors diminish the health of the estuary and its watershed, as well as the quality of life of residents. The physical and ecological condition of Galveston Bay is a general indicator of the well-being of the regional environment. Most people realize that the bay is an important regional ecosystem, and they have a keen State of the Bay interest in protecting and maintaining its – Figure 4.1.
