Dr. Mark Plummer, Karma Norman, and Suzanne Russell are the program?s three social scientists. Mark focuses his economic research on habitat protection and recovery planning for salmon, and on ecosystem valuation for Puget Sound. Karma?s research emphasis is on the socioeconomic significance of Pacific Coast fishing to individual communities Suzanne concentrates on the socioeconomics of individual transferable quotas in West Coast groundfish fisheries and the marine mammal industry of the Puget Sound.
