Puget Sound Marine Benthic Index and Graphical Causal Model (Number of pages: 2) (Publication Size: 339KB)

| Description | The Puget Sound Partnership has funded a project to develop two new tools to help us understand how human disturbance affects life at the bottom of Puget Sound: a “Marine Benthic Index” and a “graphical causal model.” The Marine Benthic Index will be used to assess the health of benthic invertebrate communities throughout Puget Sound and will be used as a Puget Sound Marine Water Vital Sign indicator. The graphical causal model will be used to test causal hypotheses of effects of human disturbances, including management actions, on subtidal benthos. |
