Respiratory responses of the striped mullet, Mugil cephalus, to three environmental stresses
(1970)The changes in the respiratory parameters of ventilation volume, opercular rate, opercular stroke volume, percentage utilization of oxygen, and metabolic rate were measured in response to the stress environments of ... -
A comparison of the alkaloids of the fasciated and non-fasciated stems in two species of Sophora
(1981)Fasciations are flattened, ribbon shaped deformities of the stem tip or other parts of the plant which arise unpredictably and sporatically on higher plants. These growths which proliferate rapidly have been compared to ... -
Advancing the application of remote sensing to improve land surface modeling
(2021-08-13)Over the recent two decades, space agencies have put enormous effort into remote sensing for understanding the global water and energy cycles. Our understanding of global hydrology has advanced in this golden age of satellite ... -
Controls on mixed carbonate-siliciclastic slope and basinal depositional architecture
(2022-05-10)Deepwater carbonate depositional systems represent historically understudied environments. The Permian Basin provides an advantageous location to re-evaluate these settings due to subsurface data density as well as existing ... -
Tectonic, eustatic, and process controls on the stratigraphic development and paleogeographic evolution of the Mesaverde Group, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado
(2022-07-19)A combination of measured sections, well-log correlations, lithofacies, ichnofacies, sedimentary structures, and grain-size and paleocurrent measurements were used to better understand the interplay among tectonic, eustatic, ... -
Petrographic characterization of the Barnett Shale, Fort Worth Basin, Texas
(2005-08)Shale sedimentology is one of the less explored areas of sedimentary geology. Shales account for two-thirds of the sedimentary rock record and preserve large portions of Earth's history in relatively continuous successions. ... -
Shelf-slope sediment transport in medium-sized basin margin clinoforms, with a focus on slope channel facies and architecture
(2022-08-10)Once sediment is brought beyond the shelf-edge, its transport into deep water is dominated by sediment gravity flows passing through slope channels and canyons, as well as from finer grained overbanking systems diverted ... -
New insights into avian evolution : evidence from fossils and colorful phenotypes
(2022-08-12)Birds (Aves) are the most species-rich terrestrial vertebrate group alive today, with a deep evolutionary history extending back to the Cretaceous and surviving through the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K/Pg) mass extinction event. ... -
Children growing up in socioeconomically disadvantaged families and from marginalized racial/ethnic groups tend to have epigenetic profiles associated with a faster pace of biological aging
(University of Texas at Austin Population Research Center, 2023) -
Torsion balances of short period
(1929) -
Jefferson Davis and his critics
