Catherine Courtier received a Master of Advanced Studies in marine biodiversity and conservation from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, in 2016. Her thesis focused on the creation of a framework for the economic, cultural and biological valuation of marine species used by multiple competing resource users, which would then enable policymakers and the public to gain a deeper understanding of how our ocean resources are changing, and how to better value them.

At the Delta Science Program, Courtier facilitated conversations amongst stakeholders about the future of the Delta's resources, as well as detail how science is being used in Delta ecosystem restoration and water management decisions.

Catherine is now a California Sea Grant staff member. Staff profile & contact details
