Pfleger Institute of Environmental Research
The Pfleger Institute of Environmental Research (PIER) is dedicated to bridging the gap between scientific research and fishery management, utilizing field research and education to develop sustainable solutions for coastal fishing communities. With over 20 years of experience, the organization focuses on improving fishery management through evidence-based practices and innovative gear development aimed at enhancing domestic fisheries.
PIER's work encompasses a range of studies, including stock assessments, migration patterns, and bycatch mitigation for key species in Southern California, such as bluefin tuna and swordfish. Committed to public education, the institute actively shares its knowledge with stakeholders and local communities to promote responsible fishing practices and healthy oceans.
