The Puget Sound Science Update represents the state‐of‐the‐science supporting the work of the Puget Sound Partnership to restore and protect the Puget Sound ecosystem. The content of the Puget Sound Science Update was developed following a process modeled after the rigorous peer‐review process used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), in which small author groups produced draft assessment reports synthesizing existing, peer‐reviewed scientific information on specific topics identified by policy leaders. These drafts were peer‐reviewed before the final reports were posted.
