San Francisco Bay NERR::Welcome!
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Welcome!
- San Francisco Bay once supported 190,000 acres of highly productive tidal marsh nearly 90% of which has been destroyed or altered. In the past these wetlands provided essential habitat for commercially important fish and crabs, filtered mud from the Bay's murky waters, and protected the shoreline from flooding. Two of the most pristine wetlands left in the estuary are protected as part of the San Francisco Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (San Francisco Bay NERR). San Francisco Bay NERR promotes scientific research of these remaining wetlands so that we can better manage and successfully restore these important habitats, and so that you can enjoy a healthier Bay.
