Stanford Earth is among the university's institutions welcoming students and their teachers to campus to participate in summer programs. Faculty members will be working with undergraduates through SESUR, the Stanford Earth Summer Undergraduate Research Program, and high school students through Stanford Earth Young Investigators.

Vanorio is the first woman to receive the award, which  is presented to a member of the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) who has made an outstanding contribution to scientific and technical advancement in Petroleum Geoscience and Engineering. 

The 2018 recipients of fellowships and awards administered by the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education (VPGE) include doctoral students in the departments of Geology, Geophysics, Earth System Science, Energy Resources Engineering, and the Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in Environment and Resources (E-IPER).

The hydrologist and professor of Earth System Science  has an “uncanny ability to understand and simply communicate both the big-picture and technical details.”

Graduates of the School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences are poised to thrive amid a “scientific revolution” being driven by new technologies and computational power, according to Dean Stephan Graham. 

Stanford Earth faculty members Dustin Schroeder, Kate Maher, Noah Diffenbaugh, and Nicole Ardoin are among the inaugural cohort of a fellowship program for outstanding environmental researchers.

Nevle, a lecturer and deputy director of the Earth Systems Program, was honored “for his relentless work to deliver the best education for students" and “for being the ultimate team player to the point of self-effacement.”

The award recognizes highly significant, long-lasting contributions to the civil, government, business, or academic communities by members of the school’s alumni body.

Earth Systems student Songhee Han, '18 is one of 20 people with Stanford affiliations awarded 2018-19 Fulbright grants to further their studies around the world.

Tannis Thorlakson, PhD '18 has been named a GreenBiz “30 Under 30” leader, an international honor for individuals who represent the future of sustainability inside companies and institutions.

Earth systems student Alex Nguyen-Phuc, ’18 created an eight-course dinner as a final project for The Senior Reflection, a year-long course that culminates in a work of art that explores a scientific topic.

A new teaching tool created by a Stanford faculty member hosts student-generated virtual journeys that enrich visits to actual locations and allow other students to take field trips from home  

The award for earth science research will support Stanford Earth student Krishna Rao's work developing machine learning algorithms for predicting tree deaths caused by drought.

Christine Su studied sustainable grazing systems in Stanford Earth's E-IPER program. Now 9,000 ranchers use her app, PastureMap, to make better decisions about where to graze cattle.

Stanford Earth PhD candidate Shanna Chu has won a fellowship from the National Center for Supercomputing Applications to test complex physical models for earthquakes.

Nicole Ardoin, acting director of Stanford Earth's E-IPER program, has won recognition for engaging students in combining scholarship with volunteer service to society.
