Interpreting Prehistoric Patterns: Site Catchment Analysis in the Upper Trinity River Basin of North Central Texas
Archaeologically site catchment analysis produces valuable information regarding prehistoric subsistence strategies and social organization. Incorporating archaeological data into catchment analyses is an effective strategy to develop regional models of prehistoric site selection and settlement …

Macroinvertebrate Community Structure as an Indicator of Watershed Health in the Upper Trinity River Basin, North Central Texas
… with rural and urban areas in the Upper Trinity River Basin. Geospatial techniques were used to quantify landuse within the watershed in a GIS. At rural sites near the headwaters of the Trinity River, collector-gathering burrowers that are adapted to minimal flow comprised the majority of …

The Trinity : myth, vision, and form in Dallas's River
The thesis explores the planning history of the Trinity River in Dallas, Texas. It examines the dramatic physical changes that have occurred in a particular area of the river adjacent to downtown, referred to as the Trinity Banks District (TBD), between the years 1840 and 2015. The thesis explores …

Submerged wood inhabiting macoinvertebrates of the Elm Fork of the Trinity River, Texas: Assemblage analyses, comparisons to the benthic fauna, and a study of Cyrnellus fraternus (Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae)
… from an 8-km segment of the Elm Fork of the Trinity River. Seventy-seven macroinvertebrate taxa were collected from submerged wood during the study. Assemblages were highly variable spatially and temporally, especially among seasons. An ordination of species and environment did not find snag …

Remote sensing of river kinematics and their expression in the modern and ancient stratigraphic record
… the geomorphic and stratigraphic expression of rivers are inherently linked, major disconnects remain between the mechanisms and processes governing river kinematics in the modern and expression of these processes in the stratigraphic record. This dissertation approaches this enigma from both …

River channel dynamics mapped with dense lidar point cloud time series
… of these landforms are created by lowland rivers that drain water, sediment, and organic matter from upland landscapes. Many of these are self-formed alluvial river channels that have a bed and banks made of mobile material. Interactions between the flow and the material lining the channel …
