Welcome to the website of Dr. Stephanie Pau's research group! We are moving to UC Berkeley's Department of Geography and Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in January 2024!
  • We study how species, communities, and ecosystem functions change through space and time.
  • We use a variety of approaches such as remote sensing, field surveys, and statistical modeling.
  • We advance basic knowledge as a foundation to solve societal problems such as our planet's irreplaceable loss of biodiversity and rapidly changing climate.
  • We value diverse forms of knowledge and evidence-based decisions.
  • We believe that scientific integrity cannot be separated from personal integrity and well-being.
  • ​​We hope our work leads to a better place to live for all beings on Earth.
