Photo: Barbara Eisenstein San Francisco Stormwater Management Requirements and Design Guidelines Low impact design (LID) offers an important opportunity to integrate San Francisco’s native landscape into ongoing urban development, creating ecologically significant patches of habitat that also function as stormwater management facilities. Introduction Low Impact Development (LID) seeks to use natural processes to manage stormwater runoff as close as possible to its source. Bioretention is a specific tool used in LID. Bioretention is characterized by a depressed planted area designed to collect stormwater runoff from a contributing area, while utilizing the physical and chemical processes of plants, soils, and microbes to slow, store and/or convey, filter, and infiltrate stormwater runoff. The City’s LID efforts are contributing to an expanding patchwork of bioretention throughout San Francisco. This appendix describes important considerations regarding plant selection for LID and bioretention and includes a palette of climate-appropriate plants that can tolerate the periodic inundation and soil saturation characteristics of bioretention planters, basins, and swales. The selection and installation of plants should consider climate, context, site conditions, natural plant communities and habitat. Below is an overview of these important considerations. Vegetation Palette For Bioretention BMPs 1 San Francisco Stormwater Management Requirements and Design Guidelines Climate Located within one of the five Mediterranean zones of the world, San Francisco’s climate is characterized by short, mild, wet winters and long, dry, warm summers.

  • Classification of the Vegetation Alliances and Associations of Sonoma County, California
    Classification of the Vegetation Alliances and Associations of Sonoma County, California Volume 1 of 2 – Introduction, Methods, and Results Prepared by: California Department of Fish and Wildlife Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program California Native Plant Society Vegetation Program For: The Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District The Sonoma County Water Agency Authors: Anne Klein, Todd Keeler-Wolf, and Julie Evens December 2015 ABSTRACT This report describes 118 alliances and 212 associations that are found in Sonoma County, California, comprising the most comprehensive local vegetation classification to date. The vegetation types were defined using a standardized classification approach consistent with the Survey of California Vegetation (SCV) and the United States National Vegetation Classification (USNVC) system. This floristic classification is the basis for an integrated, countywide vegetation map that the Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and Lidar Program expects to complete in 2017. Ecologists with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the California Native Plant Society analyzed species data from 1149 field surveys collected in Sonoma County between 2001 and 2014. The data include 851 surveys collected in 2013 and 2014 through funding provided specifically for this classification effort. An additional 283 surveys that were conducted in adjacent counties are included in the analysis to provide a broader, regional understanding. A total of 34 tree-overstory, 28 shrubland, and 56 herbaceous alliances are described, with 69 tree-overstory, 51 shrubland, and 92 herbaceous associations. This report is divided into two volumes. Volume 1 (this volume) is composed of the project introduction, methods, and results. It includes a floristic key to all vegetation types, a table showing the full local classification nested within the USNVC hierarchy, and a crosswalk showing the relationship between this and other classification systems.

The Great Sunflower Project empowers people from pre-schoolers to scientists to do something about this global crisis by identifying at-risk pollinator communities. NEWS Using sunflowers as standardized thermometers for each site, citizen scientists time how long it takes for five bees to visit their sunflower, effectively creating an index of pollinator service. THE YERBA BUENA When managed well, the return on investment for this type of science is potentially huge. The CHAPTER OF THE Great Sunflower Project has over 90,000 people signed up to receive seeds--creating the first CALIFORNIA social network designed to map pollinator service at either a regional or continental scale.
