Trinity River Basin Environmental Restoration Initiative 2010

Description: This report's "objectives are to use the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model to; assess current rates and sources of sediment and nutrient loading of twelve major water supply reservoirs in ten watersheds of the Upper Trinity River Basin, to predict the effects of anticipated future urbanization, and to consider possible conservation practices that could decrease sediment and nutrient loading of these reservoirs" (p. ii).

Channel change caused by water and sediment distribution in the San Antonio River deltaic plain: Final report

Description: "The purpose of this project is to understand historical changes in channel patterns and water and sediment distribution in the lowermost San Antonio River associated with major channel changes (avulsions). The project also seeks to identify areas of high risk or probability for future avulsions, and to develop recommendations for incorporating channel change and avulsion regimes into water resource management. The study area corresponds with the deltaic plain of the river. The San Antonio delt… more
