“Sea level rise effects on coastal forest”
Dra. Keryn Gedan - George Washington University

The seminar will describe changes in the ecosystems of the coastal 
plain, natural and anthropogenic, due to sea level rise in the 
Mid-Atlantic US. Large scale habitat conversion is occurring, as upland 
ecosystems are inundated and salinized. Trees have died across large 
areas, and the trunks remain in places referred to as ghost forests. The 
Gedan Lab has been researching the retreat of forests and expansion of 
tidal wetlands in response to sea level rise. How exactly does salinity 
kill trees? And will the tidal wetlands of the future be similar to 
those of today?

Dr. Keryn Gedan is an Associate Professor in Biological Sciences at 
George Washington University. She received her bachelor’s degree from 
Tufts University in Biology and Environmental Studies and her PhD from 
Brown University in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. Gedan is an 
ecologist who researches global change factors such as sea level rise, 
climate change, hypoxia, and invasive species in coastal and intertidal 
ecosystems. Her current research investigates the response of tidal 
marsh and nearshore upland ecosystems to accelerated sea level rise. 
Gedan and her students have projects in coastal marsh, forest, and 
salt-affected farmland in the Chesapeake Bay and Mid-Atlantic seashore, 
where they work with farmers and land managers to inform conservation 
and restoration activities. Her research is supported by NSF, Maryland 
Sea Grant, the USDA, and the National Fish and Wildlife Federation. 
Gedan is currently based in Buenos Aires as a Fulbright Science and 
Technology Fellow.


¡¡Les esperamos!!
