San Diego Bay Bibliography UC San Diego Bibliography Title San Diego Bay Bibliography Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4x93f0wk Author Brueggeman, Peter Publication Date 1994-12-31 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California San Diego Bay Bibliography The San Diego Bay Bibliography references the scientific & gray literature on the Bay up through 1994 and it is NOT current. Compiled from numerous resources (including Hubbs-Sea World Research Institute, Regional Water Quality Control Board, & local library catalogs), it is not comprehensive since so the Bay literature is elusive. In addition, there can be duplicate references varying in completeness. The San Diego Bay Bibliography is the outcome of discussion and networking within the San Diego Oceans Foundation's Ocean Resources Committee.

ABSTRACT: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in cooperation with the San Diego Unified Port District and the U. S. Navy contracted to dredge nearly eight million yards of sand from the harbor and turning basins at San Diego Harbor. The material was used to replenish the beaches and reclaim an area for a new small boat marina. Material was pumped to Imperial Beach, and to replenish the US Navy's training area at Delta Beach.

Paper l-7l ABSTRACT: Compilation of data on longshore sediment transport and associated wave and sediment characteristics from six laboratory studies and four field studies. Laboratory observations include water depth, wave height, wave period, sand size, generator angle with toe of the beach, and longshore transport rate. The maximum transport rate near Anaheim Bay is 2130 cubic yds/day north; estimated transport rate at Silver Strand is 3400 cubic yds/day south.

Coastal Zone '83, Symposium, San Diego, California, June 1-4, 1983; ASCE, N. Y., Vol. II, pp. 1714-1733 ABSTRACT: This paper discusses the management of a complex geo- political and natural resource. The Port District was assembled by consolidating the California tidelands surrounding San Diego Bay. This required removing control of the land and water areas from the mean high tide line to the pierhead line (or beyond) from the five surrounding cities, and appointing Port Commissioners as policy makers.

ABSTRACT: The average ocean wave conditions at two locations near the entrance of San Diego Bay are described in terms of the frequencies, in percentage of time, that the height, period, and direction of the 'significant' waves lie within various ranges of values. The bottom pressure, bottom orbital velocity and displacement due to the surface waves are described at the two locations in the same manner as the wave height. The seasonal and other variations of the wave characteristics are shown. Includes data.

    DESIGN OF THE CAMPBELL SHIPYARD SEDIMENT REMEDIATION PROJECT, SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA T. S. Wang P.E.1, M. Whelan P.E.2, D. Keith R.G.3, J. Verduin P.E.4 and P. Brown5 ABSTRACT The former Campbell Shipyard site is located on San Diego Bay and owned by the Port of San Diego. In 1995, the California State Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) issued a Cleanup and Abatement Order (CAO) requiring cleanup of sediments over approximately 3.7 hectares (9.2 acres) offshore of the site, due to the presence of metals, hydrocarbons, PAHs, PCBs and TBT. In-place capping of impacted sediments with targeted dredging was selected as the preferred remedy due to its environmental protectiveness, constructability, cost-effectiveness, and consistency with current and planned site uses. The Campbell Shipyard remedial design needed to account for the fact that the site is in an active industrial area with regular vessel activities, and also needed to address the concerns of multiple stakeholders. In particular, the design needed to account for a number of key technical challenges: - Designing a clean sediment cap to isolate underlying chemicals from the environment and the water column. - Protecting the cap against potential erosion from vessel-generated propeller wash, ship generated waves, tidal currents and wind-waves. - Providing sufficient water depths for ongoing container ship operations at the adjacent Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal (TAMT). - Ensuring that the project could be successfully constructed without impeding (or being impacted by) traffic to and from the TAMT facility. - Providing mitigation for loss of existing eelgrass beds and creating a stable, protected area at shallow subtidal elevations for this purpose.

Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 85-600540 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402 Foreword Since the publication of “An Assessment of Maritime Trade and Technology” by OTA in October 1983, various proposals have been made to provide incentives for re- search and development (R&D) in an effort to enhance the industry’s competitive posi- tion. Consequently, the Senate and House Subcommittees on the Merchant Marine jointly requested OTA to analyze the Federal role and/or incentives for improved maritime R&D including new institutional arrangements, financing and priority setting. This sup- plement is in reply to that request. In order to investigate the subject in more detail than our original assessment, OTA conducted an industry-wide survey, receiving replies from approximately 85 U.S. ship and barge operating and building firms. Respondents to the survey represented about one-half of the firms and work force in these two major sectors of the U.S. maritime industry. The results of that survey and other analyses are contained in this supplement. The OTA survey provided some valuable basic data on R&D activities and views about problems and opportunities from a broad spectrum of the maritime industry.

    spac benefits the secondary application of aerospace technology in other sectors National Aeronautics and Space Administration SPACE BENEFITS : THE SECONDARY APPLICATION OF AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY IN OTHER SECTORS OF THE ECONOMY - Prepared for - The Technology Transfer Division (Code ETD-6) National Aeronautics and Space Administration Contract NASW-3113 - Prepared by - Program for Transfer Research and Impact Studies Industrial Economics Division Denver Research Institute University of Denver PREFACE . Space Benefits is prepared for the NASA Technology Transfer Division by the Denver Research Institute, "Program for Transfer Research and Impact Studies," to provide the Agency with accurate, convenient, and integrated resource information on the transfer of aerospace technology to other sectors of the U.S. economy. Since it was first published in 1975, portions of Space Benefits have been updated and/or expanded in various editions; currently, new editions are prepared annually. The 1981 edition contains 443 paragraphs that describe 585 examples of beneficial use for NASA technology by public and private organizations. These examples, selected on the basis of existing documentation, illus- trate how NASA's mission-oriented programs affect technological progress in the U.S. It should be noted that many potential transfer cases have not been, and may never be, fully documented. The examples in this publication are only a portion of all such transfer activity and, therefore, do not indicate the magnitude of technological effects from NASA programs. This document is divided into three sections: (I) Transfer Overview, (2) Benefit Cases and (3) Indexes. The Transfer Overview section presents general observations concerning technology transfer activity. The questions of concern are: what technical contributions are considered; how are they transferred; and what are the beneficial effects from this activity ? The benefits section is subdivided into 20 subject areas.

CHAPTER 1 INTRDDUCTIOM AND EXEXXTTIVE SUMMARY Because it is the first light rail system to be built in this cxjuntry in over 26 years,* the San Diego Trolley represents a unique opportunity to study the impact of light rail transit on the modem urban environ- ment. Planned, designed and constructed by the San Diego Metropolitan Transit Development Board (WTCe), the Trolley started operation in the summer of 1981. Ho evaluate the impact this system will have on travel characteristics, land use, and socioeconomic changes in the area, MTEB and the San Diego Association of Governments (SATJIW]) have developed a three-phase Guideway Implementation ftonitoring Study, with funding support from the Urban Mass Transportaticxi Administration (UMTA). Unlike other impact studies funded by the federal government (i.e., BART and MARTA) which have attempted to measure a broad range of transportaticMi effects, this impact study will concentrate on more localized changes in travel characteristics, land use development, and socioeconcxnic characteristics.
