Description Low dissolved oxygen (DO) conditions are an important indicator of the health of the Salish Sea marine ecosystem and are thought to be aggravated by eutrophication.

This video reports on the coupling between eutrophication and the DO deficit in contrasting regions of Puget Sound with different sensitivities and exposures to human, oceanic, and climatic influences.

The Washington State Department of Ecology’s long historical monitoring record and spatial coverage allows us to examine this relationship through different climatic and oceanic conditions.
