of Michigan.
One of the clearest lakes in the Midwest
This page describes my research. I have retired from Southern
Illinois University Edwardsville effective May 15 2014. I am no longer taking students. To read about
my current research projects click here Research . I have kept a record
of former students from the lab. They are list under “Blast from the Past”.
