On behalf of the Puget Sound Partnership Science Panel, the Partnership is excited to announce the adoption of Priority Science to Support Puget Sound Recovery: A Science Work Plan for 2025-2029 (SWP for 2025-2029).  

The SWP for 2025-2029 identifies 18 priority Science Work Actions and six broader recommendations to improve ongoing science. These priorities and recommendations describe the needed research, monitoring, evaluation and the broader improvements to the science to recovery, protect, and improve the resilience of the Puget Sound ecosystem.   

The Panel and Partnership anticipate funding projects related to the 18 priority Science Work Actions through the Puget Sound Scientific Research solicitation.  The solicitation expects to award ~$1.5million and will be released later this winter.
