Notes
A new committee was created to develop the Clark Hubbs Student Research Award, and Ray Mathews, chapter historian, is compiling a photographic history of the TCAFS. Plans are being made for 2004 annual meeting to be held in College Station. It will be a joint meeting with the Texas River and Reservoir Management Society (TRRMS). One picture was entitled "Rio Grande Ceased Flowing At Big Bend NP, Mariscal Canyon April 9, 2003" and shows sand straits where the river stops. Another article, "Marine Stocks at Rick of Extinction," identifies 82 species vulnerable, threatened or endangered in North American waters. An MSRE digital package is available to the public and to the scientific community. Two books from the American Fisheries Society are reviewed: Black Bass: Ecology Conservation and Management (David P. Philipp and Mark S. Ridgway, editors) and Strategies for Restoring River Ecosystems: Sources of Variability and Uncertainty in Natural and Managed Systems (Robert C. Wissmar and Peter A. Bisson, editors).
