Gund Fellow, William Keeton, discusses his research as an ecosystem scientist developing and applying the best available science to questions of local, regional, and global forest ecosystem sustainability. Research foci include forest carbon dynamics and management, climate change impacts, disturbance-based silviculture, late-successional forest systems, forest-stream interactions, forest biodiversity, and sustainable forest management policy and practice in the U.S. and internationally.

A production of the Gund Institute is a hub for transdisciplinary scholarship, based at the University of Vermont and comprising diverse faculty, students, and collaborators worldwide. Together we conduct research at the interface of ecological, social, and economic systems, develop creative, practical solutions to local and global environmental challenges, and provide future leaders with the tools and understanding necessary to navigate the transition to a sustainable society.
