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.
Colin Reynolds is an Honorary Research Fellow of the Freshwater Biological Association and the Centre of Ecology and Hydrology. Much of his career was spent at The Ferry House Laboratory on the shores of Windermere, where his work was directed towards the ecology and dynamics of phytoplankton, in lakes, rivers and reservoirs. He has published over 220 research papers, two books and edited or co-edited several others. He won the International Prize in Limnetic Ecology in 1994 and, in 2001, was awarded the Naumann-Thienemann medal of SIL, the International Association for Limnology.
