Ready access to the best scientific information builds collaboration, improves policy and helps address the Salish Sea’s biggest environmental concerns. We bring the most relevant science to the people who need it.
We publish trusted and independent journalism in our online magazine Salish Sea Currents and our blog.
We maintain the Encyclopedia of Puget Sound—the region’s most comprehensive digital resource for the science of Salish Sea ecosystem recovery.
We also prepare syntheses of emerging issues, conduct peer-reviews, and host study panels and workshops including the Salish Sea Science Roundtable.
The Encyclopedia of Puget Sound is a comprehensive guide to the science of Salish Sea ecosystem recovery. Articles on this site describe major environmental threats and areas of concern, but also the facts and stories that make the Salish Sea an estuary of international importance.
News about the Puget Sound Institute and its partners. Blogs, such as ‘Our Water Ways,’ by Puget Sound Institute senior writer Christopher Dunagan, also cover news from around the region.
Quarterly updates sent to our email subscribers. Newsletters offer quick overviews of news and events from the Puget Sound Institute and its partners.
Our communications team works closely with scientists and policy experts to package and distribute special reports on decision-critical research.
While there are often opportunities to go deep in our respective fields, breakthroughs can come from unexpected connections and interdisciplinary discussions. The Salish Sea Science Roundtable is a virtual monthly seminar inspired by just that. Each month we’ll connect to share emerging science that’s shaping Salish Sea recovery and sustainable development, reconnect with colleagues in different fields, and enjoy thought-provoking discussions. We hope you’ll join us virtually the first Tuesday of each month from 12:30-1:30 pm PT.
