Eric Lambin (born 23 September 1962) is a German geographer. He is a professor at the Université catholique de Louvain and Stanford University.^[1]^[2]

From 1999 to 2005, he was Chair of the Land Use and Land Cover Change (LUCC) project (a joint initiative of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) and the International Human Dimensions Programme (IHDP)).^[1]^[3]

In July 2019, Lambin received the 2019 Blue Planet Prize for a research project which cross-referenced satellite data with the socioeconomic class of the areas it came from.
