Napa River Watershed Profile

Past and Present Alluvial River Function in the Napa River Watershed and Implications for Future Management and Essential Ecological Services

Critical Coastal Areas

Phase II of the CCA Program is designed to build on the preliminary assessment conducted under Phase I, which was completed in 2007. A key goal is to demonstrate the validity and applicability of various predictive tools to local government and other implementers of Best Management Practices (BMPs) under each set of applicable Management Measures.

Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Historical Ecology Study

This project will document the ecological and hydrogeomorphic characteristics of Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta prior to significant Euro-American modification.

Alameda Creek Historical Ecology Study

This study will assess watershed conditions prior to significant Euro-American modification, as a basis for understanding subsequent changes in watershed structure and function, and potential options for future environmental management.

East Contra Costa County Historical Ecology Study

The study will identify the historical alignments of creeks, the natural pattern of riparian habitat types, locations of former seasonal and perennial wetlands, and how these other landscape characteristics have changed through time.

Wetlands Regional Monitoring Project

This Prop 50 - funded project is a three-year effort to monitor and track changes in Bay Area wetland condition using the EPA's three-level monitoring framework.
