As part of a long-term marine water quality monitoring program, the King County Dept. of Natural Resources & Parks has collected nutrient and chlorophyll data for almost 20 years at multiple subtidal locations in the Puget Sound Central Basin (Figure 1). This monitoring program has yielded a unique dataset for evaluating the effects of both large and local scale climatic conditions on phytoplankton and nutrient dynamics. .
