Lindsey Slough Methylmercury Study

Solano Land Trust is undertaking a project in 2010 at the Calhoun Cut Ecological Reserve (CCER) to remove constructed levees. The wetland at CCER is currently open to tides, but flow is restricted to a ~3 foot diameter pipe. Removal of the levees will restore full tidal flow to Lindsey Slough within the CCER.

Fish Mercury Project (FMP)

California Bay-Delta Authority (CBDA) approved a $4.5 million proposal to examine mercury and other chemicals in fish in the Bay-Delta watershed, to increase public awareness of fish contamination issues and to monitor potential changes in mercury concentrations from marsh restoration projects in the Delta (FMP Statement of Work).

Wetlands Regional Monitoring Project

This Prop 50 - funded project was a three-year effort to monitor and track changes in Bay Area wetland condition. This wetland monitoring toolkit meets basic information needs for managing wetlands: to develop a scientific framework with standard methods for monitoring wetlands and for interpreting the results, and to regularly report the findings to the public. These monitoring tools are intended to help provide a public measure of the environmental costs or benefits of most wetland management actions.

Montezuma Data Management

This project provides data management for the Montezuma tidal marsh restoration Project described in the Wetlands Science Program. It includes data compilation into a relational database, QA review, and quarterly reports for the resulting monitoring data related to this decadal project.

McNabney Marsh - Benthos

The McNabney Marsh has not seen tidal waters in about 100 years and due to the perseverance by and diligence of the Peyton Slough Wetlands Advisory Committee (PSWAC) members, the re-introduction of tidal waters was implemented in August 2008. Benthic infauna are primarily sedentary, invertebrate organisms that burrow in or live on the surface of sediments.
