Abstract:

Is Houston Turning Green?Houston metropolitan area is ranking now the 6th largest in the US, with a growth of 1 million people in 8 years. Despite its success story, Houston suffers from a long-standing environmental bad press. The city is well known for its lack of zoning. However, Houston officials display considerable efforts to "green" their city and improve its reputation. This new policy orientation raises interesting research questions about its effective adaptive capacity to the emerging pattern of sustainable development. This paper aims at assessing the strength and weaknesses of Hou

Abstract:

The native range of <em>Ophichthys cuchia</em> includes part of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, and Nepal. <em>Ophichthys cuchia</em> has also been collected within six states in the USA (Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania) and an established invasive population exists in New Orleans (Louisiana). We provide the first record of <em>O. cuchia</em> from Texas and the second report of an established non-native population in the USA based on 26 museum vouchered specimens collected from a series of urban ponds within the Houston metro area (Fort Bend Co.).

Abstract:

The article investigates the relationship between environmental violations and water utility infrastructure investment in the Houston metropolitan area through a lens of institutional fragmentation. Special purpose water districts are highly capital-intensive service jurisdictions, which makes them extremely dependent on local fiscal capacity. Fiscal capacity is also important for a water district’s ability to respond to performance failures, particularly regulatory violations. Resource base, however, is unevenly distributed between special purpose water districts in the highly fragmented Hous

Abstract:

This study aimed to identify changes in food distribution operations at emergency food assistance organizations (EFAOs) during the COVID-19 pandemic. EFAOs across the Houston metro area, TX (human service centers and food pantries) as well as the Houston Food Bank (HFB) participated in the qualitative study. Data were collected via individual semi-structured interviews and focus group (December 2020–February 2021), and coded using semi-structured thematic analysis. Categories were pre-identified based on the interview questions. Direct quotes supported subcategories. Directors from 18 EFAOs we

Abstract:

Background: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is the most common cause of acquired immune platelet destruction in children. Clinical symptoms range from asymptomatic to significant and even life-threatening bleeding, fatigue, and reduced health-related quality of life. About 75% of affected children experience spontaneous remission, with the remainder developing chronic ITP. Our clinical observations suggest a decreased prevalence of ITP among Black children, although no available studies have evaluated racial or ethnic predisposition to ITP or to chronic disease. We hypothesized that biological d

Abstract:

The primary objective of this study was to examine the quality of volunteered geographic information (VGI) data for flood mapping of Hurricane Harvey. As a crowdsourcing platform, the U-Flood project mapped flooded streets in the Houston metro area. This research examines the following: (1) If there are any significant differences in water depth (WD) among the hydraulic and hydrologic (H&H) model, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) reference floodplain map, and the VGI? (2) Are there any significant differences in the inundated areas between the floodplain modeled by the VGI an

Abstract Introduction/Objective Monitoring SARS-CoV-2 virus through wastewater has been adopted as an effective surveillance approach for combating the COVID-19 pandemic. To understand the interplay between this virus and the human microbiome, this study examined the longitudinal co-dynamics between the virus and the microbiome across various sewage samples representing diverse demographic populations in Houston. Methods/Case Report We collected wastewater through manholes and the viral RNA levels of SARS-CoV-2 were monitored from December 2020 to 2021. The sampling sites serve nursing homes,

Abstract:

This paper presents the results of a study by the Center for Migration Studies (CMS) on potential beneficiaries of the DREAM Act of 2017 (the “DREAM Act” or “Act”). The study reveals a long-term, highly productive population, with deep ties to the United States. In particular, it finds that: • More than 2.2 million US residents would qualify for conditional residence under the DREAM Act. • An additional 929,000 — who are now age 18 and over — arrived when they were under 18, but have not graduated from high school and are not enrolled in school and, thus, would not currently qualify for status

The diva – a central figure in the landscape of contemporary popular culture: gossip-generating, scandal-courting, paparazzi-stalked. And yet the diva is at the epicentre of creative endeavours that resonate with contemporary feminist ideas, kick back against diminished social expectations, boldly call-out casual sexism and industry misogyny and, in terms of hip-hop, explores intersectional oppressions and unapologetically celebrates non-white cultural heritages. Diva beats and grooves echo across culture and politics in the West: from the “hood” to the White House, from arena concerts to nigh

Abstract:

There’s an urban phenomenon happening in Texas. It’s called the Texas Triangle. Dallas-Fort Worth defines the top while Austin-San Antonio and Houston create the base. These major urban areas are connected by Interstate-45, Interstate 10, and Interstate 35. These cities, and other smaller ones, are experiencing significant transformational growth. Much of this is happening in outlying metro areas; causing once distinct cities to grow into one another. In the coming decades, the Triangle could become one megacity. To explore new futures of the Triangle, in 2019 I launched a multi-year design re
