Trevor Keenan is a climate and ecosystem scientist who merges over two decades of interdisciplinary research with applied leadership in both academia and industry. As Chen Chair in Climate Science and Solutions and an Associate Professor at UC Berkeley, he develops models that integrate remote sensing, theory, and machine learning to improve predictions of ecosystem function and inform sustainable land management. At Berkeley Lab and through senior roles at Earthshot and Earthshot Labs, he has translated large ecological datasets into practical strategies for climate mitigation and stewardship. His work is notable for combining ground observations and mathematical rigor to refine earth system model behavior across scales. Trevor’s career path—spanning Harvard postdoctoral work, international research fellowships, and industry science leadership—reveals a rare ability to move discoveries from theory into operational tools. Based in Berkeley, he maintains an active lab focused on ecosystem traits, rates, and states, emphasizing reproducible, data-driven science.
