Research interests

My research focuses on the human dimensions of marine fisheries, particularly the science and management processes in the Northeast U.S. My research is concerned with (1) the role of public participation and different forms of expertise in policy-making, including scientists’ research-based knowledge and fishermen’s experience-based knowledge, and (2) the design of effective fisheries manament institutions, and (3) the cumulative effects of social and environmental changes in fishing communities.
