    ANALYSIS OF LANDSCAPE CHANGE OF THE RIO VISTA DAM IN SAN MARCOS, TEXAS THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of Texas State University-San Marcos in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of SCIENCE by Michelle Bussemey San Marcos, Texas May 2007 ANALYSIS OF LANDSCAPE CHANGE OF THE RIO VISTA DAM IN SAN MARCOS, TEXAS Committee Members Approved: _________________________________ David R. Butler, Chair _________________________________ Joanna C. Curran _________________________________ Nathan A. Currit Approved: _______________________________ J. Michael Willoughby Dean of the Graduate College COPYRIGHT by Michelle Bussemey 2007 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would foremost like to thank my advisor David Butler for his insightfulness, criticism, and unending support over the past two years, challenging me to strive for increased knowledge and allowing me to be myself. His enthusiasm and humorous demeanor towards discussing geomorphic topics is quite motivating to want to keep learning more and more. And thanks to him, I will never think of a badger or mushroom again without breaking out into a song and dance. I would also like to thank my committee members, Joanna Curran for introducing me to fluvial processes, encouraging me to seek a Master’s degree, and always willing to talk when I would pop by; and Nate Currit for his insight with GIS and helping me out in tight times. Special thanks to Allison Glass for all her help, patience, and comfort in making sure I maintained sanity and connectedness, and for letting me just unwind in confidence. My sincerest thanks to Carol Sawyer, Mindy Conyers, and Bernadette Marion for guidance, assistance, and mentorship during graduate school, for their words helped reassure me on countless occasions; Brock Brown for always making me feel like I could change the world and achieve greatness (at least in gardening); and to Mark Fonstad for bestowing his wisdom, testing me to think outside the box.

    UC Berkeley Graduate student research papers Title A Social Analysis of the San Marcos River Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9wz3b40v Author Byrd, Lilly Publication Date 2020-12-01 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Lilly Byrd A Social Analysis of the San Marcos River Abstract The San Marcos River, located in San Marcos, Texas, has a significant cultural importance to its community today and throughout history. There is a strong local culture of environmental stewardship. Residents described the river as a place with sacred healing qualities and of “ancient” spiritual significance (Price 2020). The local culture around the San Marcos River is in flux between environmental advocacy and recreational use. The latter both degrades and spreads awareness for the environment. The river’s condition and social qualities created an interesting case study for how relationships with this urban river foster a sense of community, local identity and environmental stewardship. San Marcos is experiencing rapid growth, and suburban expansion within the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone combined with increasing drought due to climate change is the biggest future threat to this river system. To best protect river ecosystems as these changes take place, we need to understand the local culture impacts environmental advocacy. This reconnaissance study begins to evaluate the spatial organization of recreation and the drivers of spiritual, recreational and social value in San Marcos’s river culture. Introduction The city of San Marcos originated around the river and springs. The city is experiencing steady growth that began around 2000 (U.S. Census, 2000).
