  1. "Around 40 homeowners along the shoreline of Bayview Drive have been extending their backyards onto the City’s shoreline land, which includes wildlife habitat and a popular public path," writes Irene Dieter. "Some users of the public path find this encroachment alarming." alamedapost.com/news/homeowner

  3. Widespread Landslide Activity in an Extreme Wet Season and Implications for Regional Sediment Management, Eastern San Francisco Bay Area, California

    H/T @amy East, Ph.D., P.G. | Researcher integrating geoscience and climate-change preparedness
    “[This paper (link above) is] a collaboration with [the H/T’s] colleagues from [the] USGS Landslide Hazards Program, who mapped over 8,900 landslides in the eastern San Francisco Bay Area during an extreme wet winter.
    How much sediment does such an extreme winter produce, from landslides or in stream discharge? How does that compare with long-term sediment production and landscape denudation rates?
    [They] f[o]nd that landslide sediment mobilization is comparable to long-term denudation rates, emphasizing the role of extreme events in long-term sediment production. However, one extreme wet year has a negligible effect toward counteracting ongoing problems of sediment deficit in San Francisco Bay: to keep pace with sea-level rise, extreme wet conditions would need to occur in 50 out of the next 75 years…”

    "PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: Watersheds will likely produce more sediment in a warmer future with more extreme rain, primarily through landslides in steep terrain. This study examines how an extremely wet season affected sediment production and transport in the eastern San Francisco Bay area, California. By mapping and measuring 8,928 landslides, [they] found that rare, extreme rain conditions are likely responsible for the vast majority of long-term hillslope erosion rates in this region. However, due to long residence times for sediment on hillslopes and in stream channels, a maximum of 1%–2% of that newly mobilized landslide material could have potentially contributed to sediment carried by streams into the Bay that year. Even extremely wet years cannot provide enough sediment for Bay wetlands and shorelines to keep pace with rising sea levels. To meet the demand for sediment in the Bay, such extreme rain and sediment production would need to occur in most years, which is not realistic. To restore wetlands and protect shorelines, managers likely will need to supplement the coastal system with repurposed dredged material…”

  10. Activists Assemble: A Festival of Activism -and- Community Food Drive

    Sunday, January 25, 10 am–2 pm
    Shorewood High School Shoreline
    Free

    Bring all your friends

    You’ve marched, you’ve chanted, you’ve made signs... Now what? Activists Assemble has an answer, covering next steps during the Festival of Activism. It’s a day of celebration and ideation focused around converting momentary outrage into sustained local action. Bringing together advocacy groups, experts, and neighbors for panel discussions on health and wellness, immigration, and housing, the single-day event pairs hands-on activities like voter registration and gun safety education with live music, dancing, and a strong “everyone’s welcome” ethos (especially those new to advocacy).
