Reflections on the "Microplastic Pollution: Impact on the SF Bay Delta and Remediation Strategies" symposium hosted by the Coastal Marine Sciences Institute (CMSI) and the Delta Stewardship Council (DSC).
The UC Davis Coastal and Marine Sciences Institute and the Delta Science Program hosted a one-day symposium exploring the impacts of microplastics on aquatic ecosystems, with a focus on the heavily urbanized San Francisco Bay Delta and its diverse habitats.
Rising temperatures, including heat waves, have the potential to profoundly influence coastal, marine, and estuarine systems. What unique considerations must be evaluated to understand these effects from both ecological and human perspectives?
Among the goals of habitat restoration are the recovery of a particular set of ecological functions and services. Trying to understand and predict the trajectory and pace of recovery raises important questions for resource managers.
