The Fertile Fjord—Plankton in Puget Sound
In 1983, The Fertile Fjord was published by Washington Sea Grant as part of a series on different aspects of Puget Sound. The author of The Fertile Fjord is University of Washington Oceanography faculty member, Richard M. Strickland, and his book examines the role of plankton in the Sound.
Unfortunately, some of the books in the series, including The Fertile Fjord, are now out of print. In order to make this book available, we have included the entire manuscript, including Table of Contents, Glossary and Index, on our Web site in the form of PDF documents.
