摘要

Pacific salmon (Onchorhynchus spp.), which are endangered or threatened throughout the Puget Sound region (Washington, U.S.), are integral to healthy ecosystem functioning and contribute to the region’s human populations’ social, cultural, and economic well-being. Ongoing environmental change and degradation are affecting the success of salmon recovery. In this study, we examine the contribution of salmon to peoples’ senses of place and regional placemaking. Through the application of a regional survey (n = 407) and synthesis of social-ecological geospatial data, we demonstrate that salmon contribute to residents’ senses of place and Puget Sound’s social-ecological landscape. By providing information elevating local perspectives on salmon, people, and place, this work will allow managers to better tailor regional recovery efforts to align with local community priorities and residents’ connections to place.
