| Dr. Hoenicke is a systems ecologist and has spent a good part of his career on making science relevant to decision-makers. He received his B.S. in Agricultural Sciences from the University of Bonn, Germany, and his Ph.D. in Ecology from the University of California at Davis. After completing a postdoctoral fellowship at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, he coordinated field logistics for EPA’s National Acid Precipitation Program and subsequently helped expand the National Estuary Program to Southern California at the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. He served as lead scientist for the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Project until he first joined the San Francisco Estuary Institute in 1994. After a two-year stint in the Office of the California Resources Secretary, where he spearheaded the development of a comprehensive landscape assessment program and the use of scientific criteria in making conservation investment decisions, he returned to the Institute in 2004. |
