SFEWS: Keeping water in headwaters longer; Fishery impacts of hatchery-origin vs. natural-origin chinook salmon, Diets of fish in the Stanislaus River, and more …

San Francisco Estuary & Watershed Science (SFEWS) provides credible scientific information on California’s complex water issues, linking new science to policy with great effect. SFEWS retains a regional focus on the San Francisco Bay and the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, also known as the Bay–Delta watershed.
