Desi Silviani Aulian Barry
Masters Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2026
BioI am a master's student in Earth System Science at Stanford University and a member of the Terrestrial Carbon Lab advised by Professor Alison Hoyt. My research focuses on tropical peatland hydro-biogeochemistry, particularly how carbon dynamics, greenhouse gas emissions (CO₂ and CH₄), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and iron (Fe) interactions shape peatland ecosystem processes under changing hydrological conditions. Through field and laboratory research, I aim to improve our understanding of tropical peatlands and contribute to science-based solutions for climate change mitigation, wetland restoration, and sustainable land management.

Ines M. L. Azevedo
Professor of Energy Science Engineering, Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy, at the Woods Institute for the Environment and Professor, by courtesy, of Earth System Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsProfessor Azevedo is passionate about solving problems that include environmental, technical, economic, and policy issues, where traditional engineering approaches play an important role but cannot provide a complete answer. In particular, she is interested in assessing how energy systems are likely to evolve, which requires comprehensive knowledge of the technologies that can address future energy needs and the decision-making process followed by various agents in the economy.

Marshall Burke
Food Security and the Environment Senior Fellow, Professor of Environmental Social Sciences, Senior Fellow at the at the Woods Institute for the Environment, at SIEPR and Professor, by courtesy, of Earth System Science
BioMarshall Burke is professor of Global Environmental Policy in the Doerr School of Sustainability at Stanford, a senior fellow at the Center on Food Security and the Environment, the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies, the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, and Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research, all at Stanford. He is also a research fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. His research uses tools from the social and natural sciences to measure environmental change, how society is impacted by this change, and how it can respond. He holds a PhD in Agricultural and Resource Economics from UC Berkeley, and a BA in International Relations from Stanford. He directs the Environmental Change and Human Outcomes Lab at Stanford, is co-founder of AtlasAI, and co-creator of the Environmental Hazards Adaptation Atlas.
