New content from the Encyclopedia of Life

When we first started this project, we felt that if we were to truly consider ourselves an encyclopedia, we needed to be encyclopedic. We needed to strive, at least, for some sort of comprehensive accounting of Puget Sound and the Salish Sea ecosystem. We began by collecting and developing lists of species known to occur in the region, and you can find many of these in our species library. Now a new partnership with the Encyclopedia of Life provides accounts and descriptions for many of these lists. This content supplements our Salish Sea-related features and reports, and provides trusted information from a global network of volunteer scientists. We would like to thank the Encyclopedia of Life for its vision of "Global access to knowledge about life on Earth" and for sharing its resources with us.
