These mosaics of varied interconnected habitats (Mitsch and Gosselink 1993) provide a host of ecosystem services, including biodiversity maintenance, fish and wildlife habitat, water quality improvement, flood abatement, and carbon sequestration (Rabenhorst 1995; Costanza et al. 1997; Bottom et al. 2005; Zedler and Kercher 2005; Barbier et al. 2010). They also support human activities and values such as recreation and aesthetic appreciation (Barbier et al. 2010; Milligan and Kraus-Polk 2016). Despite their critical functions, many wetland landscapes have been destroyed or irreparably altered, either incidentally or intentionally, by human activities (Holland et al. 2004; Zedler and Kercher 2005; Callaway et al. 2011; Cloern and Jassby 2012; Whipple et al. 2012; Schile et al. 2014). San Francisco Estuary (SFE) (see Figure 1) tidal wetlands were largely converted to other land uses in the late 1800s and early 1900s, with the extent of loss and new use varying by region. Wetland losses in the North, Central, and South San Francisco bays and Suisun Bay ranged from 70 percent to 93 percent to accommodate agricultural uses, salt production, managed waterfowl habitat, and urban development (Callaway et al. 2011). Landscape transformation within the most inland portion of the SFE, the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (Delta), was even more dramatic. Overall, today\u2019s Delta contains 97 percent less freshwater tidal wetland than its historical state and nearly double the open water area (Whipple et al. 2012). The majority of the modern Delta consists of agricultural tracts protected from tidal waters by human-made dikes or levees, which are commonly armored with riprap. The de-watered, rich peat soils of these created islands have supported abundant agricultural production, but have oxidized, compacted, and blown away in the process, causing significant subsidence (Deverel and Leighton 2010). Occasional levee failures turn islands into lakes; a few large shallow lakes remain after accidental levee breaches were not repaired (Whipple et al. 2012).", "description": "34 p.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Interagency Ecological Program" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Thompson, Janet K. jthompso@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Janet K.", "familyName": "Thompson", "email": "jthompso@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-1528-8452", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1528-8452" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "National Research Program - Western Branch", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/arizona-water-science-center" }, { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Hydro-Ecological Interactions Branch", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Hartman, Rosemary", "givenName": "Rosemary", "familyName": "Hartman" }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Parchaso, Francis parchaso@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Francis", "familyName": "Parchaso", "email": "parchaso@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-9471-7787", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9471-7787" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Hydro-Ecological Interactions Branch", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources" }, { "@type": "Organization", "name": "National Research Program - Western Branch", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/arizona-water-science-center" }, { "@type": "Organization", "name": "WMA - Laboratory & Analytical Services Division", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Brown, Larry R. lrbrown@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Larry R.", "familyName": "Brown", "email": "lrbrown@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0001-6702-4531", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6702-4531" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "California Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/california-water-science-center" } ] } ], "funder": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "National Research Program - Western Branch", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/arizona-water-science-center" } ], "spatialCoverage": [ { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "country", "name": "United States", "url": "https://geonames.org/4074035" }, { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "California" }, { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "city", "name": "San Francisco", "url": "https://geonames.org/5391959" }, { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "unknown", "name": "San Francisco Bay-Delta Estuary" }, { "@type": "Place", "geo": [ { "@type": "GeoShape", "additionalProperty": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "GeoJSON", "value": { "type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [ { "type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": { "type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [ [ [ -123.2720947265625, 37.02886944696474 ], [ -121.124267578125, 37.02886944696474 ], [ -121.124267578125, 38.65119833229951 ], [ -123.2720947265625, 38.65119833229951 ], [ -123.2720947265625, 37.02886944696474 ] ] ] } } ] } } }, { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 37.840033889632124, "longitude": -122.19818115234375 } ] } ] }
