Research summary
AI-generated

Todd V. Royer studies how nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and silica move through rivers, streams, and agricultural landscapes, and how these flows affect water quality. Much of the work focuses on midwestern U.S. farming watersheds, examining how practices such as winter cover crops and climate change influence nutrient loss into waterways including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River basin. The research combines field measurements, watershed modeling, and biogeochemistry to understand and reduce pollution problems like harmful algal blooms.
