Context triple: [Sitka Sound Science Center, ecosystemFocus, North Pacific marine ecosystems]

• A. Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory
  The Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory is a NOAA research facility that studies oceanic and atmospheric processes, including climate, ecosystems, and marine hazards, to support environmental understanding and stewardship.
• B. Humboldtian marine ecoregion
  The Humboldtian marine ecoregion is a highly productive cold-water coastal ecosystem along the western coast of South America, strongly influenced by the nutrient-rich Humboldt Current and known for its rich fisheries and abundant marine life.
• C. North Atlantic fisheries
  North Atlantic fisheries are rich, historically significant fishing grounds in the northern Atlantic Ocean that have long supported commercial fishing industries and coastal communities in Europe and North America.
• D. North Pacific Area
  The North Pacific Area was a World War II Allied military command responsible for operations and defense in the northern sector of the Pacific theater.
