California King Tides Initiative: Photographing the Rising Tide
How
will sea level rise impact Heart’s Desire beach? Find out by observing the year’s highest tides
called “king tides.” Photos taken during
king tide events document impacts to private property, public infrastructure
and wildlife habitat. We’ll take part in
the California King Tides Initiative by submitting photos of the king tides to
a statewide database. Meet at Heart’s Desire beach a half hour before high tide
to learn more about king tides, sea level rise and what communities are doing
to adapt. Bring your camera! Visit www.californiakingtides.org for more on the project.
