List of 48 potential marine species and food web indicators for Puget Sound.

Based on the list of recommended available indicators in O'Neill et al. [46], as well as the addition of several new indicators, a final list of 48 potential marine species and food web indicators was compiled. Each indicator was assigned to a specific key attribute (e.g., population size, community composition) based on the literature [14], [19], [20], their previous categorization in Puget Sound [17], [48], [49], and expert opinion.
