</big></font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">A summary
from Dr. Katz:<br>
The talk will survey two projects - both of which address human
use of the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary and its
neighborhood. The first project uses climate reanalysis models and
an aerial monitoring program to evaluate changing wind patterns in
the southern California bight over the last 60 years and how that
can affect access to the islands for recreational and commercial
fishing. The second half of the talk will cover our work using
ocean acoustics, maritime safety equipment and large scale
economic data to evaluate the impacts of large vessel traffic
through the So Cal bight and address the impacts and effectiveness
of management actions.<br>
