Researchers use community-submitted king tide photos to validate climate change models. This year's King Tides Project is scheduled for Nov. 15-17 and Dec. 13-15.
At high tide the surface area is approximately 24 square miles (62 km 2), but it is 10.8 square miles (28 km 2) at low tide. [6] Each tidal cycle replaces 41% of the water in Humboldt Bay, although exchange in small channels and sloughs of the bay can take up to three weeks.

Within the Southern California Bight, a sub-region of the California Current has unique physical properties. Upwelling is fairly weak in the California Bight and Smith and Eppley (1982) stated that the 16-year average for primary production was 0.402 grams carbon/(meter-squared × day), or approximately 150 grams carbon/(meter-squared × year).
