SFEI is a nonprofit environmental science organization that supports planning, design, and decision-making through independent research. It studies the health of the San Francisco Bay Area's waters, wetlands, wildlife, and landscapes, extending its focus to California and beyond. Through three core programs: Clean Water, Resilient Landscapes, and Environmental Informatics, it provides data and tools that help government agencies, communities, and industry implement cost-effective solutions to environmental challenges. Headquartered in Richmond, California, the organization serves public institutions, local governments, and community stakeholders as its primary audience. Positioned within the environmental sciences sector, SFEI combines ecological data with decision-support approaches to bridge the gap between ecological decline and adaptive management. A recent development sees SFEI advancing preliminary nature-based solution concepts through collaboration with staff at eight facilities.
