Motto:The best way to handle disappointment is to turn it into determination.
Ione Marquez, Ph.D., is a professor of environmental science at Northern Arizona University. She completed her doctoral studies in environmental science in 2015 from the University of New Mexico. An advocate for sustainable practices and an expert on climate change impacts on biodiversity, Ione has dedicated her career to exploring solutions that balance human needs with ecological preservation.
In recent years, she has been particularly focused on the effects of global warming on desert ecosystems. Her research takes her frequently to the Sonoran Desert, where she examines how changing temperatures and precipitation patterns influence local flora and fauna. Over her career, Ione has contributed more than 40 peer-reviewed articles, essays, and critiques to leading journals such as Nature Climate Change, Environmental Conservation, and Journal of Arid Environments.
She is also the author of three influential books: Preserving Our Planet: Strategies for Sustainable Living (2018, Earthscan), The Silent Sands: Climate Change and the Future of Deserts (2022, MIT Press), and Oasis in Peril: Lessons from Ancient Civilizations on Sustainability (2023, Princeton University Press). Through her work, Ione aims to inspire a new generation of scientists and policymakers to tackle the pressing issues of our time with innovation and urgency.
