“…Sediment yield records are generally inadequate to directly determine whether a decline in sediment transport is associated with impoundment due to a paucity of pre-impoundment data. Dams do not appear to have reduced mean discharges on the Brazos and Rio Grande, but Hudson and Mossa (1997) state that peak discharges, which are inordinantly important in sediment transport, have likely been reduced.…”

“…These data therefore do not clearly imply whether impoundments significantly reduce downstream sediment loads. Hudson and Mossa (1997) examined sediment discharge records for the lowermost stations on four large rivers draining to the Gulf of Mexico. Sediment yield records are generally inadequate to directly determine whether a decline in sediment transport is associated with impoundment due to a paucity of pre-impoundment data.…”

“…Mainstem reservoirs on the other study rivers are for water supply or hydroelectric power, and do not appear to have changed the general flow regime (Hudson and Mossa, 1997;Phillips, 2003;Wellmeyer et al, 2005). Sam Rayburn, however, is a flood control impoundment.…”

“…Numerous studies have documented the evolution of coastal plain rivers within Texas through the Holocene (Blum and Price, 1998;Rodriguez et al, 1998Rodriguez et al, , 2000aRodriguez et al, ,b, 2001Anderson and Rodriguez, 2000;Rodriguez and Anderson, 2000), with contemporary studies focusing on sedimentation rates White et al, 2002), fluvial-coastal systems (Giardino et al, 1995), and sediment transport/residence time (Hudson and Mossa, 1997;Phillips, 2001Phillips, , 2003aPhillips and Marion, 2001;Yeager et al, 2002). Previous work on the modern Trinity River system includes sedimentological studies that focused on wetland land loss and sediment delivery to the Trinity Bay/ Galveston Bay estuary (Morton and Paine, 1990;White and Calnan, 1991;Solis et al, 1994;Rodriguez and Anderson, 2000;White et al, 2002).…”
