November Evening Public Lecture -- Waterbirds in a Changing Landscape

Topics Include: The urbanized San Francisco Bay is a critical wintering and stop-over area for more than a million migratory annually that rely on a mosaic of Bay habitats, including former salt ponds. The 15,100 acre South Bay Salt Pond (SBSP) Restoration Project is in the process of restoring 50 to 90% of former salt production ponds to tidal marsh while maintaining the rest as foraging and roosting areas for migratory birds. How are birds responding to the preliminary phases of this project? How can research help optimize future restoration actions to benefit migratory birds?
