This edition of SFEWS (Volume 23, Issue 2) includes research on integrating traditional knowledge with science in the Delta, a framework for multiple-benefit conservation in the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, thermal stress impacts on aquatic species, genetic assessments of juvenile Chinook salmon in floodplains, conservation strategies for the endangered soft salty bird’s-beak, and sediment transport in tidal salt marshes.
