The Salish Sea: Where it is - How it works - Who uses it - What it means How do you go about naming three interconnected bodies of water that encompass 7,000 square miles and span an international border. Marine biologist, Dr. Bert Webber, Prof. Emeritus Environmental Science, WWU, Huxley College; Founding Fellow WWU Salish Sea Institute., answers that question!
