Claudette Proctor
Ph.D. Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2021
BioClaudette Proctor was born in Los Angeles, California. She double majored in Earth and Oceanographic Science and Hispanic Studies at Bowdoin College, graduating in 2021. She is now pursuing her doctoral studies in the Earth System Science department at the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. She is passionate about investigating the role and response of phytoplankton in polar regions, particularly in the context of Arctic amplification, which resulted in accelerated warming (up to four times faster) in the Arctic relative to the rate experienced by the rest of the globe as a result of anthropogenic climate change. Her research leverages a combination of fieldwork, experimental work, remote sensing, and modeling to better understand how changes in sea ice impact primary productivity, carbon cycling, and the entire Arctic ecosystem.
Claudette also teaches Introduction to the Marine Environment at Stanford and is committed to reducing barriers to student success. She is particularly interested in enhancing learning using evidence-based teaching strategies and prioritizing intention in course design and implementation. She also coaches club soccer at Stanford and enjoys arts and crafts. -
Trent Robinett
Ph.D. Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2021
Masters Student in Earth System Science, admitted Summer 2023BioTrent is first year Ph.D. student working with Prof. Alexandra Konings in the Earth System Science department. He is interested in using remote sensing data to better understand the role of plant water hydraulics in determining terrestrial vegetation's response to climate change. Trent graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2021 with a B.S. in Environmental Sciences and a minor in Catholic Social Tradition.

D. Brian Rogers
Masters Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2022
BioBrian is a doctoral student in Earth System Science working with Dr. Kate Maher. Brian is interested in developing robust monitoring, reporting, and verification frameworks for open-system carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. He is currently focusing on extending the utility of reactive transport models to address uncertainties in enhanced rock weathering as a CDR strategy.
