Abstract:
The new Carquinez Strait Bridge, northeast of San Francisco, California, will be the first major suspension bridge to be constructed in the United States since the second Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Maryland in 1973. It will replace an existing steel cantilever truss bridge, built in 1927, that was found to be seismically inadequate. The new bridge consists of an orthotropic closed steel box girder superstructure, two main cables 512 mm (20 1/8 in.) in diameter, reinforced concrete towers, and gravity anchorages. The design has set a new standard in modern suspension bridge design in the United S

Abstract:
From the toll plaza on the Oakland shores through the approach structures in San Francisco, the San Francisco—Oakland Bay Bridge, built at a cost of $78,000,000 in 1937, is an engineering marvel that carries over a quarter-million vehicles per day. Because of the different segments of the bridge and their inherent vulnerabilities, retrofitting was assigned to several groups within the California Department of Transportation. Briefly described are the analysis and design of the seismic retrofit of the West Crossing, which spans San Francisco Bay between the city of San Francisco and Yerba Buena

Ernest L. Ransome is a famous but often misunderstood 19th century California engineer and builder. Architectural historians and engineering professionals see him as a central figure in developing reinforced concrete as a usable building material decades before its use became prevalent. He is most commonly recognized as building the first reinforced concrete bridge, San Francisco's Alvord Lake Bridge, which was built in 1890 and is still in use. Historical accounts of his work, however, are based chiefly upon secondary sources and are sometimes incorrect or misleading. This article clarifies R

Abstract:
After the completion of the new east span of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge in California, large concrete piers of the old span needed to be demolished. To consider using controlled blasting for this action, hydroacoustic levels were predicted and monitored with regard to specified fish and marine mammal criteria. The metrics included peak pressure and sound exposure levels at distances from 25 to more than 4,000 ft from the pier. For peak pressure, the measured levels were slightly higher than estimated, although for sound exposure levels, the measured levels were somewhat lower than es

Abstract:
Population abundances of English sole within the San Francisco Bay from 1973 to 1981 showed a significant positive correlation with Delta outflows, and a significant negative correlation with salinity. Temperature in the bay and ocean upwelling showed no correlation with English sole abundance in the Bay. Because of the positive correlation between the abundance of English sole in the South San Francisco Bay and Delta outflow, this study suggests that any factor resulting in a reduction in outflow may reduce the abundance of English sole in the sample area.

Abstract:
Reliable estimates of river discharge and sediment transport to the ocean from large tidal rivers are vital for water resources management, efficient river and harbor management, navigational purposes, and climate analyses. Due to the difficulties inherent in measuring tidal-river discharge, hydrological and sedimentological records are typically too short to adequately characterize long-term (decadal) trends. Also, uncertainties associated with observation and calibration of hydrological models suggest a need for more accurate methods based on longer records of hydrodynamic parameters (e.g. t

In this study, I use bioarchaeological data derived from human burials to evaluate subsistence change in mid-to-late Holocene central California (circa 4950-200 B.P.). Previous investigations in the region have proposed two competing models to account for changes in subsistence patterns. The seasonal stress hypothesis argues that the increased reliance on acorns and small seeds during the late Holocene led to improved health status, since these resources could be stored and used as a “buffer” against seasonal food shortages. In contrast, resource intensification models predict temporal decli

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the role played by the politics of space in the San Francisco Bay Area during the radical upheavals of the 1960s. Space, understood as both region or locality, on the one hand, and specific public spaces, on the other, mediated Sixties radicalism to a considerable extent. And nowhere was this clearer than in the San Francisco Bay Area. From the beginning of the decade to the end, the Bay Area constituted a dynamic space at the forefront of Movement activism, a territory at once American and yet somehow autonomous or exceptional. Moreover, struggles over space, from the ear

This technical note is part of a series collaboratively produced by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)–Institute for Water Resources (IWR) and the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC). It describes the funding and financing process for the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project in San Francisco Bay, California and, like the other technical notes in this series, documents successful examples of funding natural infrastructure projects. The research effort is a collaboration between the Engineering With Nature® (EWN®) and Systems Approach to Geomorphic Engineering (SAGE) p

Abstract:
Communities across the United States are striving to promote smart urban growth through compact urban infill residential development. They are doing so to mitigate sprawl's negative fiscal, environmental, social, and physical impacts, strengthen land use-housing-transportation linkages, and develop at densities needed for well-functioning public transit. Some states, such as California, have gone a step further by linking compact urban infill development as critical to meeting greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets. Anecdotal evidence suggests some California local jurisdictions are planning d

Abstract:
A three-month lockdown in the U.S. at the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 greatly reduced the traffic volume in many cities, especially large metropolitan areas such as the San Francisco Bay Area. This research explores the impact of transportation on climate change by using remote sensing technology and statistical analysis during the COVID-19 lockdown. Using thermal satellite data, this research measures the intensity of the urban heat island, the main driver for climate change during the urbanization process. The research team acquired morning and afternoon MODIS data in the same
