Abstract:
Zebra mussels represent one of the most pervasive and expensive non-native species to be introduced into new aquatic ecosystems, negatively impacting human structures and infrastructure and acting as ecosystem engineers. Zebra mussels have demonstrated thermal plasticity, enabling expansion to semi-tropical aquatic systems including Texas ca. 2009. In this study we described spawning and population dynamics and water quality changes after colonization of two central Texas reservoirs, Lake Austin and Lady Bird Lake, ca. 2017. Veliger concentrations peaked in spring and early summer (Julian days

Abstract:
Abstract The northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus has experienced range-wide declines over the past several decades, primarily due to habitat loss and habitat fragmentation. As northern bobwhite populations continue to decline, there is a need for studies that address the impact of habitat changes on population persistence at multiple spatial scales. Our goal was to assess changes in habitat and land use related to northern bobwhite declines across multiple spatial scales in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. We determined northern bobwhite trends for 1972–2012 using Breeding Bird Survey data. A

Abstract Once covering approximately 46 million hectares of the Midwestern United States extending from southern Wisconsin southward into Texas, canopy cover of oak savannas ranged from 10% to 70%, and were dominated by fire-resistant oak species such as bur oak Quercus macrocarpa and post oak Quercus stellata, with a well-developed, diverse herbaceous layer dominated by fire-adapted grasses and forbs. In response to the loss and degradation of oak savannas, associated wildlife populations have experienced long-term declines. For example, 70% of disturbance-dependent bird species in the United

Abstract:
Declines in native bee communities due to forces of global change have become an increasing public concern. Despite this heightened interest, there are few publicly available courses on native bees, and little understanding of how participants might benefit from such courses. In October of 2018 and 2019, we taught the ‘Native Bees of Texas’ course to the public at The University of Texas at Austin Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center botanical gardens in an active learning environment with slide-based presentations, printed photo-illustrated resources, and direct insect observations.

Abstract:
Wildlife population monitoring programs are useful for identifying ecological impacts such as those from local management actions and broader scale influences such as climate change. Increasing the number of species monitored improves robustness of the program towards meeting monitoring objectives. In addition, monitoring at multiple spatial scales should increase the sensitivity of the monitoring program. We developed a monitoring program using unbiased estimates of occupancy at both local and regional scales, and unbiased estimates of density for multiple species of birds with a single proto

Horses gallop, birds fly, architects draw. Learning design through drawing has been, and continues to be, the most fundamental method of studying architecture. With drawing literacy in decline since the late 1990s, both supporters and skeptics have declared the “Death of Drawing”, pitting digital against hand drawing. Given this situation, what are the functions of architectural drawing today, particularly those that can enable learning? This article discusses a pedagogical method that aims to cultivate a student’s desire and competency to collaborate through an inclusive drawing process. This

Although abundances of many common helminth species were greater in immature than adult birds just off the breeding grounds, fall-collected adults had higher abundances of most helminth species than did both juvenile and adult birds from the wintering grounds in Mexico. While total abundance of helminths declined on the wintering grounds to only 54% of that from fall-collected birds, overall spec

This year has seen a focus on gas development projects and the energy transition. Flow assurance plays an interesting role in this area. Even though the attention has been on the energy transition, where gas development is concerned, the production processes through which gas is produced cannot be ignored. Thus, flow-assurance issues remain prevalent today, and an analysis of existing solutions, key to the success of oil and gas producing facilities, needs to be addressed.

Abstract:
Pigeons’ storied history and waning fortunes have drawn the attention of many writers, including Ahmed Ali. Ali’s 1940 novel Twilight in Delhi uses pigeon imagery to link together the spatial trope of homelessness and the temporal trope of slouching toward extinction. The novel is about the long decline of a Muslim family under British imperial rule. Its patriarch often meditates on the tragedy of cultural extinction, and his pigeon loft is made a synecdoche for that threatened culture. Early critics frequently read Twilight as a nostalgic lament for the Mughal Empire that preceded British occ

Abstract:
Brood parasitism by brown-headed cowbirds (Molothrus ater) has negative impacts on a large number of songbird species. Cowbirds are obligate brood parasites, meaning that females lay their eggs in the nests of other species and do not provide care to their offspring. Parasitism by cowbirds often results in reduced reproductive success for the host, sometimes to the exclusion of fledging any of their own young. Clearly parasitism by cowbirds can have a substantial impact on the population dynamics of the host species. Over 200 species of birds are known to be parasitized by cowbirds. Cowbirds b
