Ocean column examines fires, El Niño and Big Sur highway
Original: Gary Griggs, Our Ocean Backyard | Fires, El Niño, atmospheric rivers and the Big Sur highway
A new column by Gary Griggs in his Our Ocean Backyard series explores how California's coastal environment has been shaped by a run of natural extremes, including wildfires, El Niño conditions and atmospheric rivers, and their repeated damage to the Big Sur highway. It connects recent events to longer-term coastal and climate patterns affecting the region.
Why now: Ongoing wildfire, storm and El Niño activity keeps California coastal hazards and the repeatedly damaged Big Sur highway in public discussion.
