Description

As part of a long-term contaminant-monitoring program of fish in Puget Sound and Georgia Basin, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and NWFSC have collaborated in collection and analyses of fish to determine contaminant exposure and potential effects to a wide range of marine fish species. NWFSC staff help collect samples and conduct histological and chemical analyses of a number of fish species to provide information about spatial and temporal changes in contaminant and lipid levels, as well as provide information on their potential health effects. WDFW takes the lead on study design and sample collection and provide expertise in the distribution and ecology of the fishes. This information can be used by agency management to make informed decisions about Puget Sound/Georgia Basin fishery resources and habitats.
