Shifting Sand-Supply Dynamics in San Francisco Bay

Coastal communities, particularly those around large estuaries like San Francisco Bay, face increasing challenges due to sea-level rise and anthropogenic activities such as sediment extraction. Understanding the potential effects of these perturbations, particularly in the face of accelerating sea level rise, requires a better understanding of estuaries’ sediment sources and transport pathways.
