Long-Term Trends in Summertime Habitat Suitability for Delta Smelt, Hypomesus transpacificus

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2008
The biological productivity of river-dominated estuaries is affected strongly by variation in freshwater inflow, which affects nursery habitat quality. Previous research has shown this is generally true in the upper San Francisco Estuary, California, USA;

Report on the 2013 Rapid Assessment Survey of Marine Species at New England Bays and Harbors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Introduced species (i.e., non-native species that have become established in a new location) have increasingly been recognized as a concern as they have become more prevalent in marine and terrestrial environments (Mooney and Cleland 2001; Simberloff et ...

Will biodiversity actions yield healthy places? A systematic review of human health outcomes associated with biodiversity‐focused urban greening

open access: yesPeople and Nature
There is growing interest in using urban greening projects to support biodiversity. While there are many potential co‐benefits, the health outcomes resulting from biodiversity‐supporting activities have yet to be synthesized.

Response of Waterbirds to Salt Pond Enhancements and Island Creation in the San Francisco Bay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Historically, San Francisco Bay supported the largest salt pond complex on the Pacific coast of North America, and these areas have been used by large numbers of migrating and wintering waterbirds for more than a century.
