USGS Staff Profile:
'@context': https://schema.org '@type': Person affiliation: [] description: - '@type': TextObject abstract: Science and Decisions Center Director with the Science and Decisions Center additionalType: short description - '@type': TextObject abstract: Dr. Emily Pindilli is the Director and Chief Economist of the Science and Decisions Center at the U.S. Geological Survey in Reston, Virginia. additionalType: staff profile page introductory statement - '@type': TextObject abstract: Since joining USGS in 2012, she focuses on a diverse portfolio of environmental and informational economics research topics including:the value of scientific data; ecosystem services assessment and valuation; methods to integrate multi-disciplinary analyses to support land use decision-making; lifecycle analyses of resource development and conservation; and environmental markets. Dr. Pindilli is highly interested in innovative approaches to non-market valuation and using economics as a framework to conduct integrated analyses.Recently, Dr. Pindilli completed a primer on biodiversity and habitat markets (see here). She is currently pursuing research on quantification tools and enabling information to support biodiversity and habitat markets. Dr. Pindilli has ongoing work looking at the value of the USGS streamgage network. This includes considering the users and benefits of streamflow information for engineering, recreation, and water consumption. She is the leading economist on a project assessing the ecosystem services and values associated with the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge which includes the analysis of recreation, carbon sequestration, wildfire mitigation, and flood avoidance (see here). She is conducting similar work at the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge. She is a co-PI for a study on the Chesapeake Bay watershed focusing on floodplain ecosystem services and recently initiated similar work for the Delaware River Watershed. She is working with other USGS scientists to advance the development of the Multi-Resource Analysis. Dr. Pindilli's graduate research included an economic analysis of the costs of agricultural best management practices and the potential for nutrient trading in the Chesapeake Bay watershed (see here). Her work is focused on integrated ecologic-economic analyses and incorporating the social and earth sciences into decision-making.Prior to joining USGS, Dr. Pindilli conducted similar work in the private sector. She spent a number of years focused on conventional and unconventional energy development, economics, and environmental impacts including the evaluation of U.S. reliance on oil imports, compatibility of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and policy analysis of oil shale and other unconventional fuels. Dr. Pindilli provided economic and environmental science analytical support for the Interagency Task Force on Strategic Unconventional Fuels. She also worked on projects related to the sustainability of biofuels, solar and wind power generation issues, and shale gas regulatory issues. additionalType: personal statement email: epindilli@usgs.gov hasCredential: [] hasOccupation: - '@type': OrganizationalRole affiliatedOrganization: '@type': Organization name: Science and Decisions Center url: https://www.usgs.gov/programs/science-and-decisions-center roleName: Science and Decisions Center Director startDate: '2024-05-12T15:50:37.200794' identifier: - '@type': PropertyValue propertyID: GeoKB value: https://geokb.wikibase.cloud/entity/Q48613 - '@type': PropertyValue propertyID: ORCID value: 0000-0002-5101-1266 jobTitle: Science and Decisions Center Director knowsAbout: - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: economics - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: environmental economics - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: policy analysis - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: environmental policy - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: ecosystem services - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: environmental science - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: sustainability - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: energy memberOf: '@type': OrganizationalRole member: '@type': Organization name: U.S. Geological Survey name: staff member startDate: '2024-05-12T15:50:37.197011' name: Emily J Pindilli, Ph.D. url: https://www.usgs.gov/staff-profiles/emily-j-pindilli
