Organochlorines and other environmental contaminants in muscle tissues of sportfish collected from San Francisco Bay
Russell Fairey,K. Taberski,Stewart Lamerdin,Eric Johnson,Ross Clark,James W. Downing,John W. Newman,Myrto Petreas +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the US EPA approach was used to assess chemical contaminant data for fish tissue consumption for identifying the primary chemicals of concern, and six chemicals or chemical groups were found to exceed screening values (SVs) established using the United States EPA approach.

A systematic survey of bar-built estuaries along the California coast
Ross Clark,Kevin O'Connor +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used standard assessment techniques to document and quantify the current environmental condition of 32 bar-built estuaries of various sizes, distributed throughout California, using pressure/temperature loggers.

Assessing California's bar-built estuaries using the California Rapid Assessment Method
Walter N. Heady,Ross Clark,Kevin O'Connor,Cara Clark,Charles A. Endris,Sierra Ryan,Sara Stoner-Duncan +6 more
TL;DR: This article developed a California Rapid Assessment Method (CRAM) to assess the condition of California's bar-built estuaries using visual indicators to accurately reflect current wetland condition with regards to buffer habitat, hydrology, physical complexity, plant diversity and structure, and landscape influences.

Prioritizing Stream Protection, Restoration and Management Actions Using Landscape Modeling and Spatial Analysis
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors developed and tested watershed condition estimation models based on bioassessment data, used the EPA StreamCat dataset to identify stressors, incorporated environmental justice factors and developed reach-specific models to prioritize actions.
