rladwig2@wisc.edu, @hydrobert

Robert is a postdoc working on simulating aquatic ecosystems using GLM-AED2. His scientific work focuses on the interactions between lake ecosystems and their external drivers (atmosphere, catchment, agriculture, water management) as well as how these processes can be numerically simulated. Research Profile.

rjmooney@wisc.edu, Rob’s research focuses on how spatial and temporal variability combine to affect freshwater ecosystems throughout the Midwest. He is particularly interested in how seasonal shifts and winter conditions influence processes in rivers and lakes. Rob is also interested in curriculum development and inclusive teaching strategies in higher education and uses aquatic-based courses to explore effective teaching methods. Research Profile.

kreinl@wisc.edu, @KaitReinl

Kait’s research is broadly focused on how the synergistic effects of climate and watershed influence impacts inland water quality. Her most recent research has focused on cyanobacterial blooms in low-nutrient systems using monitoring, experimental, and computer modeling approaches. Research Profile.

cbuelo@wisc.edu, @CALgalBloom

Cal’s research focuses on algal blooms and other drivers of water quality, predicting change in aquatic ecosystems, and understanding the impact of those changes. His work often involves developing tools to manage and analyze high-frequency sensor data. Research Profile.

Lover of lakes and tennis balls. Terrible at research, excellent at field work. Never complains about mosquitoes or cold water.
