Bustling with oil tankers, laced with pollutants, and crowded with forty-six cities, the San Francisco Bay is home to healthy eelgrass beds, young Dungeness crabs and sharks, and millions of waterbirds. This title delves into an array of topics including fish and wildlife, ocean and climate cycles, endangered and invasive species.
