Michael Gundale
My research is focused on understanding how forest plants interact with soils to control a variety of ecosystem properties and processes, such as productivity, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity. To accomplish this, I combine several disciplines, including plant community ecology, biogeochemistry (particularly the N cycle), and microbial ecology. A further goal of my research program is to understand how forest environments respond to global and regional change factors (e.g. climate change or biological invaders). Finally, I aim to use new knowledge about forest ecosystem functioning to develop or improve silvicultural and forest management approaches that maintain the sustainable supply of forest ecosystem services into the future.
