Description A warm and dry summer ended with a smoky September due to massive wildfires, followed by strong rain. As a consequence, muddy river plumes in Puget Sound were very visible, especially near the Nooksack River.

During summer, many wonderful contributions from the public documented the large formations of organic material in Central Sound and helped us cover the gap in our marine-flight observations from April through September.

By September, when we started flying again, a few bays still had red-brown blooms. Nevertheless, schools of fish are abundant, and jellyfish are sparse, which is good news.

Also in this issue, meet our new ocean acidification experts.
