Aquatic Food Web Interactions: Microcosms as Lake Models

John C. Holz is an Assistant Professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in aquatic ecology. He has established an active lake water quality extension program that provides information on common Midwest management issues (e.g., algal control, aquatic weed management, nutrient management) to lake owners, users, and managers. His research interests include the role and interaction of nutrient limitation and herbivory in structuring freshwater plankton communities, surface water quality and management, lake classification methodology, and lake restoration.
