2008 Research and Scholarly Activity Annual Report Includes Scholarly Activity, Publications and Creative Works for 2007 Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Office of Graduate Studies and Research RESEARCH & SCHOLARLY ACTIVITY OFFICE OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCH The research and creative activity at TAMUCC provides an important service to the region and nation and improves the quality of life for all Americans. An important focus of research is economic development, as universities help to strengthen and revitalize their surrounding economies with the power of innovation. Researchers at TAMU-CC are studying problems of the future that range from developing sources of renewable energy to improving our ability to reduce damage resulting from national disasters. Research provides an important under pinning for economic development. The sponsored projects revenue provides dozens of jobs and provides assistantship support for many of our students. Not all research is grant supported. These scholarly and creative projects by our faculty members are published, presented and displayed at shows and performances. All of these activities add to the quality of our lives and enhance the educational experience for graduate and undergraduate students alike. A sampling of research accomplishments are included in these pages, Whether the impact is local or global, the goal of these efforts remains the same: To create new knowledge that improves people’s lives and enhance opportunities for students.

Access to high quality habitat in estuarine areas via tidal inlets is critical for sustainability many fish populations. The Port Mansfield Channel has historically provided water exchange between the Gulf of Mexico and the lower Laguna Madre; however, there has been much recent concern over the rapid closure of this inlet due to sedimentation. The closing of this channel may impact many recreational fishery species requiring access to nursery habitats such as seagrass meadows. A major goal of Dr. Stunz’s research program is to understand the processes influencing fish migration through tidal inlets.

This research could be as minimal as survey/interview research or as intense as clinical trial research. At Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, our IRB committee reviews primarily educational research which involves surveys, interviews, and focus groups utilizing children from area school districts. The committee does review various other forms of research protocols throughout the year. The full committee meets on the first Friday of each month to review protocols. Committee members are also asked to review protocols within the “Expedited” category on an as need basis. The chart shown below reflects the activity of research involving human subjects that is conducted by TAMU-CC faculty, staff & students.
