Rate My Professor Marie-Chantale Pelletier

Pelletier's academic interests center on ecosystem service valuation, environmental-economic accounting, economic impact assessments of production and consumption systems, environmentally extended input-output analysis, public policy evaluation, and novel methods for quantifying natural capital to enable its financial recognition. She applies these approaches in collaborations with water utilities and land conservation agencies to embed natural capital in accounting and decision-making processes. Notable publications include "The exploration of natural capital on the balance sheet: a case study of a water utility company" (Meditari Accountancy Research, 2025), "Applying Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Accounting in an Australian Context" (One Ecosystem, 2025), "Does information matter in the value of a wetland?" (2022), "Valuing recreational services: A review of methods with application to New South Wales National Parks" (Ecosystem Services, 2021), and "Informing Food Consumption Choices: Innovations in Labelling" (Food and Nutrition Sciences, 2016). Her earlier contributions include forestry studies such as "Growth response to thinning in two subtropical hardwood species" (2011) and investigations into genetic variation in Eucalyptus shrinkage properties. Additionally, she is affiliated with the Catchments, Coasts and Communities research cluster, serves on the university's Low Risk Ethics Committee, and supervises postgraduate research students.
