Figure 1. estuaries. 116"^ 120 124^ Map of California showing 100 fm (183 m) contour (dashed line) and locations of 13 bays and mated using a planimeter. Area of the California shelf to the 100 fm (183 m) contour was also determined using a planimeter. This area was considered to be sufficiently similar to that which would be estimated to the 122 m depth mentioned above. The latitude recorded was that at the mid- point of the mouth of each bay or estuary. Coast- line distance from each bay ("bay" used inter- changeably with "bay and estuary") to the nearest neighboring bay was determined by measuring point to point (not crossing land) along the coast on Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts. Di- urnal tidal ranges (MLLW to MHHW) were obtained from National Ocean Survey Tide Tables except for the range for Tijuana Estuary which was obtained from White and Wunderlich (1976). Mouth width of each bay was determined from Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts by draw- ing a line across the entrance continuous with the coastline on either side and measuring the distance.
