ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Our monitoring program is supported by the National Park Service via NOCA base funds and the Vital Signs program. Seattle City Light, U.S.G.S., and Earthwatch have also made valuable contributions to our program, as have faculty and staff at Portland State University and Western Washington University. We also thank the countless volunteers whom have generously contributed to the project in a variety of ways over the years.
