Research summary

Stuart A. Ludsin studies freshwater ecosystems, especially the Great Lakes (notably Lake Erie), focusing on fish ecology, food webs, and how water quality problems like harmful algal blooms and eutrophication (excess nutrients causing algae overgrowth) affect fish populations and fisheries. His work often connects ecological research to practical management strategies, including ecosystem-based approaches for balancing water quality and fisheries under climate change. This research would suit students interested in applied aquatic ecology, fisheries management, and the science-policy interface for large lake systems.

Publication output rose from the late 2010s to a peak around 2021, then declined and has since stabilized at a lower but steady rate of about 6 papers per year.
