Description
The species composition, distribution, and abundance of microbenthic organisms in the intake and discharge areas of the Cedar Bayou Electric Power Station, Baytown, Texas, were investigated using data obtained from October 1969 through May 1973. Two types of quantitative bottom sampling devices were used; a modified Birge-Ekman dredge (16 stations) and a frame sampler (5 stations). Each gear was used every 4 weeks, but alternately; with a 2-week time interval between use if the dredge and frame. Data from each gear type were treated separately. Hydrological measurements including water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and conductivity accompanied each biological sample. Data were analyzed using cluster analysis. Because the plant was off-line during most of the summer of 1971 and a cooling pond was in operation during the following summer, little elevation of temperature occurred in the discharge area of Trinity Bay. Bottom salinities were usually higher in the discharge area than in surrounding water.
