San Francisco Bay Joint Venture
Smooth cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), a tall grass native to the east coast, has invaded Willapa Bay, Washington, and the San Francisco Bay, California. Management with glyphosate and imazapyr can be effective, but in the San Francisco populations, applications in several sites are confined to short periods in the fall in order to protect nesting habitats of Clapper rails (Rallus longirostr...
متن کاملEstimates of suspended sediment entering San Francisco Bay from the Sacramento and San Joaquin Delta, San Francisco Bay, California
This study demonstrates the use of suspended-sediment concentration (SSC) data collected at Mallard Island as a means of determining suspended-sediment load entering San Francisco Bay from the Sacramento and San Joaquin River watersheds. Optical backscatter (OBS) data were collected every 15 min during water years (WYs) 1995–2003 and converted to SSC. Daily fluvial advective sediment load was e...
متن کاملPolychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in San Francisco Bay.
San Francisco Bay is facing a legacy of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) spread widely across the land surface of the watershed, mixed deep into the sediment of the Bay, and contaminating the Bay food web to a degree that poses health risks to humans and wildlife. In response to this persistent problem, water quality managers are establishing a PCB total maximum daily load (TMDL) and implementa...
متن کاملSolvent exposure and non-Hodgkin lymphoma: no risk in a population-based study in the San Francisco Bay Area.
The literature on environmental exposures and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is inconsistent and no occupational exposures have been conclusively identified as causal factors. We used job exposure matrices to assess the association between occupational exposure to solvents in a population-based case-control study of NHL (n = 1,591 cases; n = 2,515 controls) in the San Francisco Bay Area bet...
متن کاملDasymetric Mapping Techniques for the San Francisco Bay Region, California
Demographic data are commonly represented by using a choropleth map, which aggregates the data to arbitrary areal units, causing inaccuracies associated with spatial analysis and distribution. In contrast, dasymetric mapping takes quantitative areal data and attempts to show the underlying statistical surface by breaking up the areal units into zones of relative homogeneity. This thesis applies...
