ESIIL Postdoctoral Associate

Keiko Nomura is a marine social-ecological systems scientist focused on fisheries sustainability and marine resource management. Her ocean-centered research has covered topics like marine spatial planning, small-scale fisheries adaptation, and conflict and cooperation in international fisheries. She combines quantitative network and spatial analyses with qualitative governance contexts to address key questions on ocean resource use. As a Postdoctoral Researcher at ESIIL at CU Boulder, she is now exploring how social-ecological factors influence seafood trade in the Pacific and, in turn, how this supports food security and sustainable development in the region.
