Full Citation Examples
The Salish Sea comprises most of the Puget Sound water area. Marine species are generally assemblages of discrete populations occupying various ecological niches. Genetic changes to populations can occur as a result of genetic drift, introgression between populations, local adaptation, etc. This project provides genetic baseline data to monitor genetic change in plants, animals, and algae.

| Actual or Planned Long-Term Data Archive Location: | NCEI-MD |
| Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Archiving: | 365 |
| How Will the Data Be Protected from Accidental or Malicious Modification or Deletion Prior to Receipt by the Archive?: |
The Northwest Fisheries Science Center facilitates backup and recovery of all data and IT components which are managed by IT Operations through the capture of static (point-in-time) backup data to physical media. Once data is captured to physical media (every 1-3 days), a duplicate is made and routinely (weekly) transported to an offsite archive facility where it is maintained throughout the data's applicable life-cycle. |
