Here, we review these records and the global climate teleconnections they suggest following the recent publication of the Speleothem Isotopes Synthesis and Analysis (SISAL) database. We find that low-latitude records generally reflect changes in precipitation, whereas higher latitude records are sensitive to temperature and moisture source variability. Tropical records suggest precipitation variability is forced by orbital precession and North Atlantic Ocean circulation driven changes in atmospheric convection on long timescales, and tropical sea surface temperature variations on short timescales. On millennial timescales, precipitation seasonality in southwestern North America is related to North Atlantic climate variability.

MITCHELL Texas Technological College WATER RESOURCES \ CENTER Lubbock, Texas WRC 69-6 INTERNATIONAL CENTER for ARID and August 1969 SEMI-ARID LAND STUDIES A CHECKLIST AND ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE SUBTERRANEAN AQUATIC FAUNA OF TEXAS James R. Reddell and Robert W. Mitchell Department of Biology Texas Tech University Lubbock, Texas INTRODUCTION In view of the ever-increasing interest in all studies relating to the water resources of Texas, we have found it timely to prepare this guide to the fauna and biological literature of our subterranean waters. The value of such a guide has already been demonstrated by Clark (1966) in his "Publications, Personnel, and Government Organizations Related to the Limnology, Aquatic Biology and Ichthyology of the Inland Waters of Texas". This publication dea ls primarily with inland surface waters, however, barely touching upon the now rather extensive literature which has accumulated on the biology of our subterranean waters. To state a n obvious fact, it is imperative that our underground waters receive the attention due them. They are one of our most important resources. Those subterranean waters for which biological data exi st are very un­ equally distributed in the state. The best known are those which are acces­ sible to collection and study via the entrances of caves. Even in cavernous regions there exist inaccessible deep aquifers which have yielded little in­ formation as yet. Biological data from the underground waters of non-cave rn­ ous areas are virtually non-existant.

[Page Intentionally Left Blank] EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On August 25, 2015, a Joint Resolution between the City of Boerne and Kendall County initiated the Kendall Gateway Study (KGS). The joint resolution requested that the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) lead the planning efforts to identify viable transportation corridors for future growth. This Joint Resolution (Figures ES-1 and ES-2) specifically requested that TxDOT “determine potential future transportation corridors needed to accommodate the anticipated growth in the region.” Figure ES-1: 2015 City of Boerne and Kendall County Joint Initiation Kendall Gateway Feasibility Study Report February 2019 Executive Summary | ES-1 Figure ES-2: 2015 City of Boerne and Kendall County Joint Initiation No major corridor analyses have been conducted in the region since 2005. As illustrated in Figure ES- 3, subsequent and significant growth has occurred in and around the City of Boerne and Kendall County, emphasizing the need for improved mobility in the region.
