Essays on Science and Policy in the Bay-Delta
there is a large and complex literature that addresses the question of optimally employing science in environmental policy. That literature mostly focuses on the challenges of efficient and effective interactions; it is probably fair to say it is long on

Predicting Sediment Bulk Density for San Francisco Estuary
Sediment bulk density (ρdry) and particle size are two important parameters for predicting sediment bed erosion. ρdry, however, is difficult to measure accurately. The units of ρdry have not been consistently reported in the literature, leading to confusion, particularly in the calculation of sediment budgets that typically require integrating mass ...

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