Diane E. Pataki is a Foundation Professor and Director of the School of Sustainability at Arizona State University.[1]

She is an elected Fellow of the American Geophysical Union, the Ecological Society of America, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

In 2008 she was a recipient of the James B. Macelwane Medal from the American Geophysical Union for her research on coupled water and carbon cycles. The award is given for “significant contributions to the geophysical sciences by an outstanding early career scientist.”[2]

Early life and education

Diane E. Pataki was born in New York City. She attended Jamaica High School and was included in the first group of students to participate in the Gateway to Higher Education (program) which started in 1986. The Gateway program allowed for students to receive extra exposure and mentorship in science and math. Pataki has cited this as what inspired her to pursue scientific research. Pataki took extra science, research and writing classes at the City University of New York.[citation needed]

Pataki graduated from Barnard College with a major in Environmental Science in 1993. During this time she worked as an intern at the headquarters of the Environmental Defense Fund assisting the executive director, Fred Krupp.[citation needed]

Pataki attended the Duke University Nicholas School of the Environment to pursue a M.S. and Ph.D. under Professor Ram Oren. Her dissertation is titled "Water use of co-occurring species in response to environmental conditions at varying temporal scales".[3] Her two post-doctoral mentors were James Coleman at the Desert Research Institute and James Ehleringer at the University of Utah.[citation needed]

Career and research

After her doctoral and post-doctoral research, Pataki in 2004 joined the faculty of the University of California, Irvine. While there, she was the founding Director of the Center for Environmental Biology and the Steele Burnard Anza Borrego Desert Research Center in 2011.[4]

In 2012 Pataki moved to the University of Utah as an associate professor in the Department of Biology as well as adjunct faculty in the Department of City & Metropolitan Planning. From 2019 to 2021 she served as the Associate Vice President of Research at the University of Utah. From 2014 to 2015 she was a Program Director in the Division of Environmental Biology at the National Science Foundation.[5] Pataki was also, until 2017, a member of the United States Environmental Protection Agency Board of Scientific Counselors.[6]

Pataki's earlier research under Ram Oren while at Duke University focused on controls of canopy conductance in temperate forest species.[7] She now specializes in land-atmosphere exchange, ecohydrology, biogeochemical cycles, and ecosystem services in urban environments. She has done extensive work on the use of carbon isotopes for source apportionment of urban carbon dioxide fluxes.[8][9]

In 2015 Pataki participated in the Leopold Environmental Leadership Program.[10] She currently serves on the NSF Advisory Committee on Environmental Research and Education.[5][11]
