Cuando vino la mexicanada: authority, race, and conflict in West Texas, 1895-1924 / Authority, race, and conflict in West Texas, 1895-1924Levario, Miguel Antonio, 1977- 28 August 2008 (has links)
This dissertation proposes to explain how militarization during the turn of the twentieth century affected relations in the transnational West Texas region between Mexicans and Anglos and between the United States and Mexico. The study seeks to demonstrate that militarization complicated these relations and deepened racial and international divisions. Within this discussion, the study will also demonstrate that the "border troubles" of the early twentieth century gave shape to an authority structure that was composed of border institutions that sought to pacify the region with ever-increasing vigilance and punitive measures. The result of such measures was a disciplined society that reinforced racial segregation in towns and cities along the border, specifically El Paso. A case study approach is utilized to highlight specific events, institutions and public figures that contributed to the formation of authority in El Paso. They include the National Guard, the 1916 El Paso race riot, the Texas Rangers, and the Border Patrol. The affects of developing authority and their institutions on race relations along the U.S.-Mexican divide are addressed. Historians have discussed various aspects of the history of immigration, race, and labor in the border region. However, they have given little attention to militarization and the emergence of authority in the integration of Mexicans and Mexican Americans into American society in the border region. Militarization of the U.S.-Mexican border between 1890 and 1924 contributed to the definition of racial and ethnic relations. This study examines the history of the West Texas region while focusing on the changing relationship between the Mexican-origin community and larger society. The general intent is to demonstrate that the militarization of the region complicated relations at the same time that it established institutions that defined the new political structure in the border region. The dissertation also studies how the history of Mexican Americans was tied to the special relations between the communities along the border. This transnational relationship serves as a vantage point from which to study national and regional histories and an emphasis on race allows this study to explain the extent to which militarization affected social relations in the border region.

Laser-mapping and 3D reconstruction of the Lower Ordovician El Paso Group breccia collapse breccias, Franklin Mountains, TexasBellian, Jerome Anthony, 1971- 19 January 2011 (has links)
The Lower Ordovician El Paso Group is a >400-m-thick carbonate succession exposed in the Franklin Mountains, El Paso, Texas. The El Paso Group contains multiple breccias related to collapsed-paleocave systems. These breccias have been documented as having formed during the top-Lower Ordovician Sauk depositional supersequence lowstand. Evidence presented in this study suggests that cave formation may have been as much as 350 million years younger and related to Laramide oblique right lateral compression. Regardless of the timing of formation, the breccias mapped in this study are of collapsed paleocave origin based on breccia clast organization and matrix content. Speleogenetic models are compared against observations of breccia distribution by direct field observations and mapping on sub-meter airborne light detection and ranging or lidar data. Point vectors were defined for every point within study area to highlight subtle changes in outcrop erosional profile for mapping geological features directly on the lidar point cloud. In addition, spectral data from airborne photography and hyperspectral image analysis were used assist in geological contact definition. A digital outcrop model was constructed from 3D geologic mapping results from which spatial statistic were extracted and used to reconstruct collapsed paleocave breccia bodies. The resultant breccia geometries were compared against laser-scanned modern cave dimensions, from Devil's Sinkhole, Rocksprings, Texas, and used in analysis of conceptual models for cave formation. The breccias of the southern Franklin Mountains follow linear trends that closely match Riedel shear fracture patterns predicted from right-lateral oblique compression. Stress orientations that match right-lateral oblique compression in the Phanerozoic of the El Paso region are related to the Laramide orogeny. The relationship of observed structures and the orientation of collapse breccias may indicate that southern Franklin Mountain breccia bodies are the result of a solution-enhanced tectonic karst system. / text

Modeling and assessment of flow and transport in the Hueco Bolson, a transboundary groundwater system: the El Paso / Cuidad Juarez caseNwaneshiudu, Okechukwu 15 May 2009 (has links)
Potential contamination from hazardous and solid waste landfills stemming from
population increase, rapid industrialization, and the proliferation of assembly plants
known as the maquiladoras, are of major concern in the U.S.-Mexican border area.
Additionally, historical, current, and future stresses on the Hueco Bolson alluvial aquifer
in the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez area due to excessive groundwater withdrawal can affect
contaminant migration in the area. In the current study, an updated and improved threedimensional
numerical groundwater flow and transport model is developed using a
current Hueco Bolson groundwater availability model as its basis. The model with
contaminant transport is required to access and characterize the extent of vulnerability of
the aquifer to potential contamination from landfills in the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez border
area. The model developed in this study is very capable of serving as the basis of future
studies for water availability, water quality, and contamination assessments in the Hueco
Bolson.
The implementation of fate and transport modeling and the incorporation of the
Visual MODFLOW® pre and post processor, requiring MODFLOW 2000 data conversion, enabled significant enhancements to the numerical modeling and computing
capabilities for the Hueco Bolson. The model in the current research was also developed
by employing MT3DMS©, ZONEBUDGET, and Visual PEST® for automated
calibrations.
Simulation results found that the Hueco Bolson released more water from storage
than the aquifer was being recharged in response to increased pumping to supply the
growing border area population. Hence, significant head drops and high levels of
drawdown were observed in the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez area. Predictive simulations were
completed representing scenarios of potential contamination from the border area sites.
Fate and transport results were most sensitive to hydraulic conductivities, flow
velocities, and directions at the sites. Sites that were located within the vicinity of the El
Paso Valley and the Rio Grande River, where head differences and permeabilities were
significant, exhibited the highest potentials for contaminant migration.
