Carpenter is a leader in lake ecosystem science. He showed how fish control lake productivity and nutrient cycling, and his manipulations of entire lakes have brought whole-ecosystem experimentation to a new level of sophistication. |
Research Interests

My current research topics are scenarios for resilient futures of social-ecological systems and abrupt transitions of watershed, river, and lake ecosystems. My field research is based in Wisconsin and my global work is interactive with Stockholm Resilience Center. |
