The Role of Tidal Marsh Restoration in Fish Management in the San Francisco Estuary

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2014
  Tidal marsh restoration is an important management issue in the San Francisco Estuary (estuary). Restoration of large areas of tidal marsh is ongoing or planned in the lower estuary (up to 6,000 ha, Callaway et al. 2011).

Benthic macroinvertebrate response to estuarine emergent marsh restoration across a delta-wide environmental gradient

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Benthic invertebrates play vital roles in estuarine ecosystems, but like other taxa they have been excluded from former marshlands by diking and land use conversion.

Assessing the Restoration Needs of the San Francisco Estuary Using a Target Fish Community Analysis

open access: yes, 2010
Historically, aquatic ecosystem restoration has attempted to return a region to past or pristine conditions, which is often unachievable. Here I examine a different approach using a target fish community analysis that efficiently reveals aspects of the ...

Distribution and Invasion Potential of Limonium ramosissimum subsp. provinciale in San Francisco Estuary Salt Marshes

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2014
Non-native sea lavenders (Limonium spp.) are invasive in salt marshes of southern California and were first documented in the San Francisco Estuary (the estuary) in 2007. In this study, we mapped distributions of L. ramosissimum subsp. provinciale (LIRA)
