Future San Francisco Bay Tidal Marshes – a Climate Smart Planning Tool2011-10-01PRBO's "Future San Francisco Bay Tidal Marshes – a Climate Smart Planning Tool" projects changes for the entire SF Bay using a dynamic marsh accretion model. Side-by-side maps are displayed of the current and future tidal marsh distribution for SF Bay and users can select climate change scenarios, sediment supply assumptions, and choose which results to display. The models generating these maps are the first to take into account the ability of marshes to accrete, or keep up with, rising sea levels, in the San Francisco Bay Estuary. It allows the users to view and query maps to evaluate how sea level rise may impact tidal marsh habitat and bird species distribution over the next 100 years. |
