Three-dimensional Modeling of Tidal Hydrodynamics in the San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
San Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2010 Simulations of circulation in the San Francisco Estuary were performed with the three-dimensional TRIM3D hydrodynamic model using a generic length scale turbulence closure.

Resistance and resilience of pelagic and littoral fishes to drought in the San Francisco Estuary. [PDF]
Ecol Appl, 2021 Many estuarine ecosystems and the fish communities that inhabit them have undergone substantial changes in the past several decades, largely due to multiple interacting stressors that are often of anthropogenic origin. Few are more impactful than droughts, which are predicted to increase in both frequency and severity with climate change. In this study,

Status of the Siberian Prawn, Exopalaemon modestus, in the San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
San Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2014 The freshwater Siberian prawn, Exopalaemon modestus (Heller 1862, Crustacea: Decapoda: Palaemonidae), was likely introduced into the San Francisco Estuary in the late 1990s. Since the initial collection in 2000, E.

Living Fossils: Sturgeon of the San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
Frontiers for Young Minds, 2021 Sturgeon are fish that are considered living fossils. Their ancestors date back over 200 million years, to the same time as dinosaurs. These fish can grow taller than humans (over 2 m), weigh over 160 kg, and live as long as humans. Sturgeon species have special adaptations, such as a vacuum-like mouth and body armor called scutes. There are 27 species

Habitat Variability and Complexity in the Upper San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
San Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2010 High variability in environmental conditions in both space and time once made the upper San Francisco Estuary (the Estuary) highly productive for native biota.

Four decades of water quality change in the upper San Francisco Estuary. [PDF]
Estuar Coast Shelf Sci, 2018 Quantitative descriptions of chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of estuaries are critical for developing an ecological understanding of drivers of change. Historical trends and relationships between key species of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (ammonium, nitrate/nitrite, total) from the Delta region of the San Francisco Estuary were ...

Powering Life in the Water: Phytoplankton in the San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
Frontiers for Young Minds, 2021 Phytoplankton are probably the most important aquatic organisms that you have NEVER seen! Phytoplankton are nearly invisible and use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and nutrients in water to produce sugars that power the estuary food web. The amount of phytoplankton growth is important because phytoplankton are the food for aquatic animals like zooplankton ...

Mesozooplankton omnivory in the upper San Francisco Estuary [PDF]
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007 While many studies have examined mesozooplankton feeding in coastal environments, less attention has been given to this subject in estuaries. We used bottle incubation experiments to measure the feeding rates of a cladoceran (Daphnia sp.), a calanoid copepod (Acartia spp.), and 2 cyclopoid copepods (Oithona davisae and Limnoithona tetraspina) on the ...
