David A. Keith FAA is an Australian botanist / ecologist who works in the areas of vegetation dynamics, population and ecosystem modelling, and fire.[1] He is currently (September 2020) professor of botany at the University of New South Wales.[2] His work has led to his being a member of the Australian Threatened Species Scientific Committee and the standards committees for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems.[3]
Keith was awarded the Australian Ecology Research Award by the Ecological Society of Australia in 2013.[4] In 2017 he was awarded the Clarke Medal by the Royal Society of New South Wales for distinguished work in the Natural Sciences.[5] He was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2023[6] and a finalist in the Australian Institute of Botanical Science Eureka Prize for Excellence in Botanical Science in the same year.[7]
