Sediment Deposition and Erosion in South San Francisco Bay, California from 1956 to 2005
Sediment deposition and erosion in South San Francisco Bay from 1956 to 2005 was studied by comparing bathymetric surveys made in 1956, 1983, and 2005. From 1956 to 1983, the region was erosional. In contrast, from 1983 to 2005, the region was depositional.
Levee Assessment Report
Understanding the geologic and geotechnical framework of the Restoration Project area, and the geologic and geotechnical conditions contributing to the current performance of the existing levees, is integral to the success of assessing flood control, project planning, and future levee design.
