Our Team

We are a research project of the Forest Ecology and Ecosystems Lab at the University of Wisconsin Madison.

The lab sits within the Department of Forest and Wildlife Ecology. Together we build and apply ecosystem process models and industrial life cycle assessments to understand how forests and forest products move carbon through the Earth system.
