Acknowledgements
Many people and organizations made this indicator report possible. They include an array
of public agencies, non-profits and academic researchers. Indicator data were collected and analyzed, using standard quantitative protocols
to ensure that the results were valid and replicable. Data collection was also
greatly amplified by traditional ecological knowledge, or TEK, which
provides linkages with our past from observation, traditions and
oral traditions from elders. Please refer to the technical documents associated with each indicator for further information regarding quality assurance and peer-reviewed research.
This
transboundary indicators project was supported by the following contributors:
Puget Sound Action Team; Washington State Department of Ecology; Environment
Canada, Georgia Basin Action Plan; U.S. EPA, National Estuary and
Regional Geographic Initiative Programs
