Born in Hawaii, Vitousek graduated from Amherst College in 1971 and received his Ph.D. in biology from Dartmouth College in 1975. Since then, he has worked as an Assistant Professor of Zoology and Biology at Indiana University (1975–79), an Associate Professor of Botany and Biology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1980–83), and a Professor of Biological Sciences at Stanford University since 1984.〔 He is married to fellow Stanford professor and ecologist Pamela Matson. He was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1992.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nasonline.org/site/Dir/827423303?pg=vprof&mbr=1005659 )〕 In 1993, he was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amacad.org/publications/BookofMembers/ChapterV.pdf )〕 Vitousek was awarded the 2006 NAS Award for Scientific Reviewing "for his scholarly and inspirational book and reviews on nitrogen cycling and its role in the evolving patterns of ecosystem productivity and diversity."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nasonline.org/site/PageServer?pagename=AWARDS_scirev )〕 In 2010, he was awarded the Japan Prize.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.japanprize.jp/data/foundation/2010jpnews44_e.pdf )〕 ==Selected publications== *Peter M.
