Eric Lambin
George and Setsuko Ishiyama Provostial Professor and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI study human-environment interactions in land systems by linking remote sensing, GIS and socio-economic data. I aim at better understanding causes and impacts of changes in tropical forests, drylands, and farming systems. I currently focus on land use transitions – i.e., the shift from deforestation (or land degradation) to reforestation (or land sparing for nature), – the influence of globalization on land use decisions, and the interactions between public and private governance of land use.

Mathieu Lapôtre
Assistant Professor of Geological Sciences
BioProf. Lapôtre leads the Earth & Planetary Surface Processes group. His research focuses on the physics behind sedimentary and geomorphic processes that shape planetary surfaces (including Earth's), and aims to untangle what landforms and rocks tell us about the past hydrology, climate, and habitability of planets.

James Leckie
C.L. Peck, Class of 1906 Professor in the School of Engineering and Professor, by courtesy, of Geological Sciences
BioLeckie investigates chemical pollutant behavior in natural aquatic systems and engineered processes, specifically the environmental aspects of surface and colloid chemistry and the geochemistry of trace elements. New research efforts are focused on the development of techniques and models for assessment of exposure of humans to toxic chemicals. Specific attention has been paid to the evaluation of exposure of young children to toxic chemicals. Other interests include technology transfer and the development of environmental science programs in developing nations.

Seongbeom Lee
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Energy Resources Engineering
BioSeongbeom Lee is currently a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Energy Resources Engineering at Stanford University (Advisor: Prof. Simona Onori). His research aims to create the very first, transformative and computationally optimized modeling framework for electrochemical energy storage systems that is able to accurately describe macroscale (both in 1-D and 2-D) dynamics used for design optimization and systematically transfer the accuracy and fidelity of such macroscale models to low-order/reduced models suitable for real-time control.
Seongbeom received a B.E. in Chemical Engineering and a Master’s in Chemistry (Advisor: Prof. Kyung Byung Yoon), from Sogang University, Seoul, South Korea. He also earned a Ph.D. (Advisor: Prof. Venkat Subramanian) in Chemical Engineering from the University of Washington, Seattle. Seongbeom has been working on experiments, modeling, and simulations of electrochemical energy storage and conversion systems, and as a result, he has authored 5 peer-reviewed publications, combining material science, electrochemistry, computer science (e.g., machine learning), and mathematical techniques (e.g., optimization and numerical methods). This multidisciplinary expertise/experience enabled him to collaborate with many research groups (Prof. Victor Zavala group at the UW-Madison, Prof. Wenzhong Gao group at the University of Denver, Dr. Babu Chalamala group at SNL, Dr. Jun Liu group at PNNL, and Dr. Peter Khalifah group at BNL), minimizing a collaboration time delay between modelers/controllers and experimentalists (e.g., providing open access codes with multiple software including Matlab, Fortran, C++, Comsol, Python, and Maple). -
Matthew Edward Lees
Ph.D. Student in Geophysics
BioI work on the use of remote sensing technologies to investigate groundwater hydrology. In particular, I am interested in the use of a satellite imaging technique called interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) to map out surface deformation, and relating that deformation to hydrology.
Before coming to Stanford, I studied a Masters in Earth Sciences at the University of Cambridge (2013-17) and spent time as a hydrogeologist at the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development, ICIMOD (2017). -

Andrew Leslie
Assistant Professor of Geological Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in morphological evolution. I approach this broad topic by investigating how interactions among form, function, and environment have influenced evolutionary patterns in plant reproductive structures over million-year time scales. This approach requires synthesizing information from different disciplines, and my work uses approaches from paleontology, biomechanics, phylogenetics, and biogeography.

Xiaowei Li
Ph.D. Student in Geological and Environmental Sciences
BioXiaowei Li maintains broad interests in marine and lacustrine sedimentology, stratigraphy, and geochemistry. His current research is primarily focused on outcrop-based studies of reservoir-scale heterogeneity in carbonate platform architecture and porosity, dolomitization processes, and numerical modeling of stratigraphy and diagenesis.

Tianze Liu
Ph.D. Student in Geophysics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am current interested in using broadband seismic record to study the structure and evolution of the Earth's crust and lithosphere. I am also enthusiastic in combining different methods to understand the Earth's story as a whole.
