You can catch this presentation in the archives; it is not specifically about
our kelp beds but contains some interesting info.

CDFW's upcoming lecture, "The Perfect Storm: Multiple Climate Stressors Push
Kelp Forest Beyond Tipping Point in Northern California", presents the latest
science describing how Northern California kelp forests have been reduced to an
all-time low due to a "perfect storm" of large-scale ecological impacts.
The lecture, available by

is scheduled for July 18, 2019 from 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. and is presented by CDFW
Senior Environmental Scientist Laura Rogers-Bennett, PhD.
Extreme climatic events have recently impacted marine ecosystems around the
world, including foundation species such as kelp. In this lecture, Dr. Bennett
will quantify the rapid climate-driven catastrophic shift in 2014 from a
previously robust kelp forest to unproductive urchin barrens in northern
California. Bull kelp canopy was reduced by 93 percent along more than 350 km
(about 217 miles) of coastline.
Twenty years of kelp ecosystem surveys reveal the timing and magnitude of
events, including mass die-offs of sea stars (2013-) and red abalone (2017-),
the extent of nearshore ocean warming (2014-2017), and the sea urchin
population explosion (2015-). These stressors led to the unprecedented and
long-lasting decline of the kelp forest and the ecosystem services it supports,
such as the red abalone and sea urchin fisheries.
The lecture is part of CDFW's Conservation Lecture
