Keith J. Sainsbury

Keith J. Sainsbury (born February 22, 1951) is the recipient of the 2004 Japan Prize[1] and the Australian Book Publishers Association Award for Outstanding (Book) Design and Production.[2] His research led to the understanding of the relevance seabed habitats have in assessing the capacity of key species,[3] as well as the effect seabed trawling has in altering the communities.[4] Sainsbury has a BS (with Honors) in Marine Ecology and Mathematics,[5] a PhD. from the University of Canterbury,[6] and was ranked a Wellington High School high achiever.[7]

Previously, Sainsbury was also in charge of a research team[8] which built the scientific basis used for complex planning and management of marine ecosystems in Australia's exclusive economic zone.[9] This culminated in the attestation of large marine protected areas around Macquarie Island and off southern Tasmania.[10]

Sainsbury has also written a variety of publications on ecology, tropical fisheries,[11] ecosystem, etc.[12] He chairs the technical advisory board of Marine Stewardship Council.[13]
