CALIFORNIA’S OCEAN ECONOMY Abstract California’s Ocean Economy is the most expansive study of its kind in the nation and provides an update to the 1994 economic study conducted by the California Research Bureau and later released as part of the Resources Agency ocean strategy titled, California’s Ocean Resources: An Agenda for the Future. This report from the National Ocean Economics Program (NOEP) provides a more comprehensive understanding of the economic role of California’s ocean resources than has been available to date. It also provides California with strong evidence that its unique ocean and coastal resources are important to sustaining California’s economy. This information highlights the economic importance of the ocean and coast to California and the nation and underscores the need for continued leadership in balancing resource protection and economic development.

  • Appendix A: Summaries by Subregion
    Appendix A: Summaries by Subregion Appendix A presents highlights and basic information on the ecological and socioeconomic setting and existing managed areas in each of the seven subregions. Table I-1 shows habitats present within each of the seven subregions and the proportion of each habitat that lies within each subregion. Note that subregions were created for the ease of displaying information on maps and are not related to the bioregions identified by the SAT. The information presented here is a result of a joint fact-finding effort with the South Coast Regional Stakeholder Group and their constituents. This appendix builds on information found in the regional profile and incorporates local knowledge gathered from stakeholders. This appendix complements and is supported by the regional profile. For example, key impaired water bodies in this appendix were those water bodies highlighted by stakeholders as areas they felt were of concern. A complete list of 303(d) impaired water bodies in the south coast study region can be found in Appendix F. While subsections of this appendix represent stakeholders’ intimate knowledge of their region, they may not represent an exhaustive list of every activity or important area (e.g. uses/activities at each public access point, important recreational and/or commercial fishing areas). The local knowledge represented in this appendix can help inform MPA planning by providing a more detailed picture of the ecological and socioeconomic settings of the seven subregions. Appendix A incorporates comments provided by the National Park Service and the following RSG members: Merit McCrea, Bruce Steele, Jack Peveler, Gerry Richter, Buck Everingham, Dave Weeshoff, Lia Protopapadakis, Joel Greenberg, Mike Gauger, Sarah Abramson, Carl Mayhugh, Garth Murphy, Mike McCoy, Jack Engle, Norris Tapp, Calla Allison, Mary Jane Foley.

  • Interventions: Coastal Strategies to Resist, Retreat, and Adapt
    Interventions: Coastal Strategies to Resist, Retreat, and Adapt A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture in the school of Architecture & Interior Design in the College of Design, Architecture, Art, & Planning by Hannan Al-Timimi, B.A. in Urban Studies and Planning University of California San Diego Committee Chair: Edward Mitchell, MArch Committee Member: Vincent Sansalone, MArch Abstract: Rising sea levels caused by the warming of ocean waters, and freshwater from melting ice sheets threaten the California coast. If the global warming trend continues, about two-thirds of Southern California beaches would disappear.1 There are three possible solutions for endangered communities – retreat, resist, or adapt. This project will examine a combination of techniques that exist and are nonexistent on Beach-Barber Tract, one of La Jolla’s sixteen neighborhoods but could be implemented into Fiesta Island’s, Mission Bay Park. The proposition is that a combination of existing building solutions might be adapted. Those include walled courtyards varying from residential to civic scale, buildings raised on stilts or piloti, landscape- based solutions and hybrids between built form and landscape, including mat buildings. The mat building might be thought of as a constructed sponge, able to absorb storm surge and both accommodate existing use patterns and offer alternative use of urban space. Case studies of architectural and landscape techniques will support the design thesis and a range of types and urban organizations will be roughly calibrated to anticipate future storms. The proposal will provide both a theoretical and practical set of projections to redesign a more resilient coastal community.
