Occurrence of Prymnesium parvum (Golden Alga) in Texas Intertidal Water 2008 and 2009 (open access)

Occurrence of Prymnesium parvum (Golden Alga) in Texas Intertidal Water 2008 and 2009

Report on a study surveying prymnesium parvum concentrations in the tidal portions of ten Texas rivers in 2008-2009. No P. parvum was found in 2008, possibly due to unusual weather conditions, and in 2009 P. parvum blooms were found in the Arroyo Colorado and Brazos Rivers.

Propagation and Establishment of Native Aquatic Plants in Reservoirs (open access)

Propagation and Establishment of Native Aquatic Plants in Reservoirs

This documnet "presents an approach for accelerating community succession using native aquatic plant fonder colonies. By ensuring that propagules, such as seed or plant fragments, are present in sufficient numbers when conditions are suitable for natural establishment, the time required for vegetative colonization to occur is shortened...Recommendations for production of suitable propagules include their growth requirements, operation of production facilities, and selection of different propagule types by species. Recommendations for establishment of these propagules in reservoir ecosystems include site selection, season of establishment, planting techniques, defining individual phases of an establishment project and monitoring and adaptive management after species are introduced."
