Alex de Sherbinin is the Director and a Senior Research
Scientist at the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN), a spatial data and analysis
center within the Columbia Climate
School (CCS) specializing in the human aspects of global environmental
change. He also serves as:
· Manager of the NASA
Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (SEDAC);
· Lecturer, Sustainability Science and Climate & Society
Masters degree programs;
· Co-Director, Climate
School’s Climate
Mobility Network, and a lead on its successor, the joint CCS-UN Global
Centre for Climate Mobility (GCCM)
Global Knowledge Hub.
· Member of the Columbia
University Committee on Forced
Migration; and
· Editor of the Climate Mobility Section of the journal Frontiers in Climate
He is a co-author of World Bank’s Groundswell report series and the bi-annual Environmental Performance Index (EPI), a joint project of Yale and Columbia, and he has led basic and applied research projects funded by NASA, DOD, UNDP, UNEP, and the US Agency for Development.
Dr. de Sherbinin is a geographer whose research interests focus on the human aspects of global environmental change and geospatial data applications, integration, and dissemination. He is lead or co-author more than 60 peer reviewed articles and chapters, including lead authored articles appearing in Annual Reviews of Environment and Resources, Climatic Change, Environmental Research Letters, Global Environmental Change, Science, and Scientific American. His research covers a range of topics, including climate change and migration; climate vulnerability mapping; urban climate vulnerability and resilience; population dynamics and the environment; environmental indicators; and remote sensing applications for environmental treaties.
Dr. de Sherbinin holds a PhD in Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation from ITC at the University of Twente (Netherlands), and MA and BA degrees in geography from Syracuse University and Dartmouth College, respectively. Prior to joining CIESIN, he served as a USAID Population-Environment Fellow with the Social Policy Program of International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN, Gland, Switzerland), and a Population Geographer at the Population Reference Bureau (PRB, Washington, DC). From 1984-1986 he served as an agricultural extension agent with the U.S. Peace Corps in Mauritania, West Africa.
He
has profiles on ORCID, ResearchGate and LinkedIn, a
Twitter feed, and blog postings
through the Earth Institute’s State of the
Planet and the World
Data System blog.
Alex is a Christian and is actively involved in ministry through his church in NYC and in Rockland County, NY. He is a co-chair of the NYC Faculty Roundtable, which is dedicated to fostering dialogue that explores current academic thought on science and religion. For those interested in exploring these topics, the following books explore the connections between faith, science, and the environment: Real Scientists, Real Faith and Planetwise.
