    CCA #122 San Diego Bay Critical Coastal Area DESCRIPTION This Critical Coastal Area (CCA) watershed drains into San Diego Bay in San Diego County, the third largest sheltered bay on the California coast. Many waterways flow into the bay. The largest is the Sweetwater River in the southern half of the bay, terminating in Sweetwater Marsh. The Otay River also terminates in saltwater marsh at the southern tip of the bay. Other notable creeks include Telegraph Canyon Creek, Paleta Creek, Chollas Creek, Paradise Creek, and Switzer San Diego Bay, Creek.

San Diego Bay is bordered by many large urban areas, including the cities of San Diego, National City, Chula Vista, Imperial Beach, and Coronado. The downtown commercial center of the City of San Diego is along the north side of the bay, and the San Diego International Airport is nearby. Residences in Coronado (such as the Coronado Cays) line the Silver Strand, the strip of sand between the south bay and Coronado Island. The Coronado Bridge roughly bisects the bay, and provides auto access to the peninsula.

PERSONNEL San Diego NWR Complex personnel have been mostly teleworking since mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic in efforts to reduce staff exposure to community transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We are working to catch up on a backlog of field tasks such as trimming vegetation along trails, removing trash, and overseeing construction contracts, work that we unable to accomplish during the earlier season work shutdowns due to COVID-19. Our staff and partners have been working hard to salvage the research and biological monitoring season. We are not yet able to authorize our volunteers to return, due to the ongoing risk of community spread of the virus. We miss them, immensely! We are however, happy to report that the San Diego National Wildlife Refuge Complex has hired two new permanent staff members. Julie Gonzalez is our new Park Ranger working on our Urban Wildlife Refuge program and Nancy Fernandez is our new Park Ranger working on public communications primarily via social media. 2.

  • Mission Bay Park Rules
    Mission Bay Park Rules "The World's Finest Aquatic Playground" Mission Bay Park consists of 4,600 acres, approximately half land and half water. There are 27 miles of shoreline, 19 of which are sandy beaches. Eight locations, including over two miles of sandy beaches, are designated as official Swimming Areas. In addition to swimming, Mission Bay Park provides areas for almost all types of water activities and park recreation, including: fishing, boating, waterskiing, sailing, picnicking, volleyball, softball, beach fires, horseshoes, kite-flying, and many more. Mission Bay Park, and the 17 miles of oceanfront beaches, offer the largest natural tourist attraction in Southern California. The Park has six major hotels, many restaurants, eleven marinas, specialty shops, sportsfishing, and the world-famous aquatic park, Sea World. In a pamphlet this size, it is impossible to list all of the applicable boating and park regulations. The following regulations are guidelines, and not the complete content of each law. These regulations are based on excerpts from the California Code of Regulations (Titles 13 and 14) and San Diego Municipal Code sections. Park patrons should contact the Lifeguard Services Division, or other legal sources for the exact content of the various laws. Mission Bay Park and the beach areas are regularly patrolled, and regulations are strictly enforced by the Police and Lifeguards Speed BASIC SPEED LAW - Local and State laws prohibit the operation of any vessel or other watercraft at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent, and at no time at a speed that endangers life, limb or property. CONTROLLED SPEED AREAS - (1) Speed limits are posted on buoys and signs throughout the bay, at the entrances and inside controlled areas.

  • Common Benthic Algae and Cyanobacteria in Southern California Tidal Wetlands
    UC San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography Technical Report Title Common benthic algae and cyanobacteria in southern California tidal wetlands Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/21c8f9f0 Author Janousek, Christopher N Publication Date 2011-07-11 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Scripps Institution of Oceanography Technical Report Common benthic algae and cyanobacteria in southern California tidal wetlands Christopher N. Janousek Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego 11 July 2011 Janousek 2011: Algae and cyanobacteria of southern California marine wetlands. 1 Abstract Benthic algae and photosynthetic bacteria are important components of coastal wetlands, contributing to primary productivity, nutrient cycling, and other ecosystem functions. Despite their key roles in mudflat and salt marsh food webs, the extent and patterns of diversity of these organisms is poorly known. Sediments from intertidal marshes in San Diego County, California host a variety of cyanobacteria, diatoms, and multi-cellular algae. This flora describes approximately 40 taxa of common and notable cyanobacteria, microalgae and macroalgae observed in wetland sediments, principally from a small tidal marsh in Mission Bay. Cyanobacteria included coccoid and heterocyte and non-heterocyte bearing filamentous genera. A phylogenetically-diverse assemblage of pennate and centric diatoms, euglenoids, green algae, red algae, tribophytes and brown seaweeds was also observed. Most taxa are illustrated with photographs. Key words alpha diversity • cyanobacteria • diatoms • euglenoids • Kendall-Frost Mission Bay Marsh Reserve • macroalgae • microphytobenthos • salt marsh • Tijuana Estuary • Vaucheria Introduction The sediments of coastal marine wetlands in California are inhabited by a variety of algal and bacterial primary producers in addition to the more conspicuous vascular plants that provide most of the physical structure of coastal salt marshes and seagrass meadows.

The coastal zone area , approximately 87,888 acres (137 square miles), contains a wide variety of significant coastal resources including major state and local beaches, San Diego marine terraces, bluffs, coastal marshes, estuaries and lagoons, canyon‐cut mesas, seaside beach communities, significant urban development, state university campus lands, cultural resources, recreational harbors, and the Port of San Diego. There are also major federal lands within the county, including Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base, and numerous U.S. Navy facilities adjacent to San Diego Bay (North Island Naval Air Station, Naval Amphibious Base, Naval Station San Diego and Naval Outer Coast Shoreline Submarine Base). The Tijuana River National Estuarine (includes San Diego Bay) rocky beach Research Reserve (NERR) sits along the US‐Mexico 5% (confined) border.

  • Both San Diego Bay and Mission Bay Are Assumed to Have Experienced Coastal Decline Differently Than the Smaller Lagoons Along the Central San Diego County Coast
    TIDES OF CHANGE? SHELL MIDDENS OF THE MISSION BAY AREA, SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA ALETTE VAN DEN HAZELKAMP LAGUNA MOUNTAIN ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. Both San Diego Bay and Mission Bay are assumed to have experienced coastal decline differently than the smaller lagoons along the central San Diego County coast. New and existing archaeological marine shell data from La Rinconada de Jamo (CA-SDI-5017) and four other sites (SDI-46, SDI-11,571, SDI- 12,556, and SDI-12,557) around Mission Bay show environmental shifts in the Mission Bay area and adaptation of the Native Americans to these changes, mainly by collecting different shell species. However, typical processes mentioned in the Coastal Decline Model, like siltation (or decrease in Argopecten) or changes in the subsistence pattern have been far less evident or not visible at all compared to San Diego Bay and other nearby lagoons. Mission Bay is a shallow depression located in the southern part of San Diego County in San Diego, just north of the hilly peninsula of Point Loma and south of Mount Soledad. Geologically, the Mission Bay area belongs to the Bay Point Formation, which consists of interfingered beach, estuarine, and colluvial deposits from the Late Pleistocene. During the Holocene, sea level rose quickly and drowned river valleys, forming bays. After a slowdown of sea level rise (around 6000 B.P.), deposition of sediment accumulated, both transported from the ocean and from the rivers. The eventual accretion of sand beaches in southern California roughly followed a north-to-south pattern and depended on the available sand source, the angle of the coastal platform, and wave refraction (Masters 2006).
