Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writer and artist Margie Crisp has traveled the length of Texas’ Colorado River, which rises in Dawson County, south of Lubbock, and flows 860 miles southeast across the state to its mouth on the Gulf of Mexico at Matagorda Bay. Echoing the truth of Heraclitus’s ancient dictum, the river’s character changes dramatically from its dusty headwaters on the High Plains to its meandering presence on the coastal prairie. The Colorado is the longest river with both its source and its mouth in Texas, and its water, from beginning to end, provides for the state’s agricultural, municipal, and recreational needs. As Crisp notes, the Colorado River is perhaps most frequently associated with its middle reaches in the Hill Country, where it has been dammed to create the six reservoirs known as the Highland Lakes. Following Crisp as she explores the river, sometimes with her fisherman husband, readers meet the river’s denizens—animal, plant, and human—and learn something about the natural history, the politics, and those who influence the fate of the river and the water it carries. Those who live intimately with the natural landscape inevitably formulate emotional responses to their surroundings, and the people living on or near the Colorado River are no exception. Crisp’s own loving tribute to the river and its inhabitants is enhanced by the exquisite art she has created for this book. Her photographs and maps round out the useful and beautiful accompaniments to this thoughtful portrait of one of Texas’ most beloved rivers. Former first lady Laura Bush unveils this year's Texas Book Festival poster designed by artist Margie Crisp, author of River of Contrasts: The Texas Colorado. The poster features cliff swallows flying over the Colorado River.

Book Mouth of the Colorado River  Texas  Monitoring Program

Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of the monitoring effort of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at the mouth of the Colorado River, Texas. The report includes background information and objectives of the study, which were as follows: (a) Evaluate the design and efficiency of the weir jetty and adjacent impoundment basin so that project maintenance requirements and costs can be more accurately established. (b) Develop and improve equations for computing long shore sediment transport in the vicinity of the Colorado River, Texas. (c) Determine which sediment transport equations work best in the surf zone. (d) Collect data to aid in efforts to improve future designs of similar Corps projects. The report also includes data collection plans and procedures, data analysis, an evaluation of the project, and conclusions and recommendations. The data collection effort was divided into three main components: deployment of offshore directional wave sensors to obtain long-term, continuous wave, current, and water level information; intense, short-term field experiments that principally collected sediment transport data in the surge zone; and bathymetry surveys of the adjacent shorelines.
