Talk by Doris Sloan, Adjunct Professor, Earth and Planetary Science, UC Berkeley, and Curatorial Associate, UCMP, given at the 2010 University of California Museum of Paleontology Short Course. The origins and history of San Francisco Bay are dependent on the geologic processes that created it. These processes include plate tectonics, climate, and sea level changes that have shaped the present and past bays. Today's Bay holds many surprises, which are not evident to the millions who live on its shores. We will talk about the secrets hidden by its waters, the geologic processes operating on the Bay today and the human impact on its margins.
