Steven J. Davis is an earth system scientist at the University of California, Irvine's Department of Earth System Science and holds a joint appointment in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering [1] He is a highly cited researcher. [2]
Davis received his undergraduate education at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, his Juris Doctor at the University of Virginia School of Law, and his doctorate from Stanford University. [3] From 2001-2004, Davis worked as a corporate lawyer at Gray, Cary, Ware & Freidenrich, LLC in Palo Alto, California advising venture-backed start-ups in Silicon Valley (now part of DLA Piper). He received his PhD in Geological and Environmental Sciences in 2008 from Stanford University. [4] He then worked as a post-doctoral researcher with Ken Caldeira at the Carnegie Institution for Science's Department of Global Ecology from 2008 to 2012. [5]
Davis researches embedded emissions of carbon dioxide and air pollution in international trade, [6] [7] [8] energy systems, [9] carbon lock-in, [10] [11] the quantities and causes of greenhouse gas emissions, [12] [13] and the interactions of agriculture and the global carbon cycle. [14] [15]
In 2015, Davis and his co-authors were awarded the Cozzarelli Prize by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences for a paper they published on the role of China's international trade and air pollution in the United States. [16] In 2018, Davis received the James B. Macelwane Medal of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) for his contributions in developing a science that links global climate change and society, and was simultaneously elected AGU Fellow.
Davis co-founded two organizations related to climate change, the Climate Conservancy, a group working to assess and label consumer goods with their carbon footprints, [17] and Near Zero, a non-profit that "...provides credible, impartial, and actionable assessment with the goal of cutting greenhouse gas emissions to near zero". [18]
Davis is on the editorial board of Environmental Research Letters. [19]
