Question about Ca Water depths

[sylvester]

Folks I am looking for some water info on the bay that Laci was found in.

I am a forensics sudent, and was told for next week to prepare a briefing about coffin birth and some theories about the time span.

I looked on NOAA website but could not find specifics for that bay.

I am looking water temps surface and at the thermocline, Depths of the bay, tide and tide levels min max.

If you know of a web link for this can you post it for me?

Thank You

The bodies washed up at Point Isabel in Richmond, on the east bay of the San Francisco bay. All I know about it is that it is deep enough for an aircraft carrier and that it is dirty, I wouldn't want to swim in that water. But there should be lots of info on the SF bay.

Here is a link for tide & current predictions:

There is a second site I have seen but it appears to be limited to coastal info rather than inland; it may have something you can use, though:

Good luck.
