12:30
- 5:00 pm COASTAL FIELD TRIP
Coastal
scientists and engineers will lead a field trip to San Diego
area beaches between Oceanside and La Jolla. The trip is intended
as a general introduction to the geological, physical, and
human setting of the central San Diego County coastline. A
chartered motor coach (with full restroom facilities) will
depart from the hotel at 12:30 PM and return about 5:00 PM.
A gourmet
deli lunch will be provided, as well as a range of snacks,
fruit, and beverages, all included in the fee of $40 in addition
to conference registration fees. Individuals not attending
the conference are welcome to register for the field trip
for $40 on a space-available basis. A short field trip introduction,
guide, and map will be prepared and distributed during the
trip.
The field trip will begin with a lunch-time bus ride to the
coastal area south of Oceanside with stops at several of the
following locations: Carlsbad, Leucadia, Encinitas, Cardiff,
Solana Beach, Del Mar, Torrey Pines, La Jolla, and Mission
Beach. The beaches and cliffs in many of these areas are eroded
and retreating. Sites where human intervention has impacted
the coast will be emphasized, including infrastructure, residential
and park development, coastal protection structures, and beach
nourishment locations. Stops at several coastal lagoons are
also planned, including Agua Hedionda, Batiquitos, San Elijo,
and San Dieguito.
