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...

leashed, giving rise to dramatic differences in a population over a short period of time and perhaps even creating changes that could lead to new species. Experiments in other labs on house flies and plants may have given this theory some backing, McDonald says. In those tests, inbreeding prompts widespread genetic variation, which may be an outcome of losing the suppression effect. McDonald's ...
متن کاملSan Francisco State University at LiveQA Track of TREC 2016
There are many situations in our everyday life where we look for answers to some questions “Who wrote this book?”, “How to grill a fish?” or “Where is the Opera House located?”. Twenty years ago to answer these questions people were looking them up in the encyclopedias, recipe books or were asking other people. Moving the information into the electronic form and making it universally access...
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...
