Patrick O'Sullivan was formerly Principal Lecturer in
Environmental Science at the University of Plymouth, UK. His
research was mainly been conducted into the development through
time of lake-watershed ecosystems, and the reconstruction of lake
ontogenies using palaeolimnological and documentary proxy records.
Throughout his teaching career, he concentrated on development of
interdisciplinary programmes in Environmental Science, and the
interface between the scientific understanding of human impact upon
natural processes in lakes, and the economic and philosophical
ideas which lie behind the solutions to 'environmental' problems.
