Bradley J. Austin Source Confirmed

OverviewAI-generated summary

Bradley J. Austin's research focuses on the study of cyanobacterial blooms and the production of microcystins, particularly in recreational water bodies. His work investigates factors influencing microcystin production, such as nitrogen form and concentration, as well as the availability of micronutrients. Austin has also explored the potential of using chlorophyll and phycocyanin fluorescence as indicators for recreational lake managers to assess cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (HABs) and toxin levels, using Lake Fayetteville as a case study. His publications also address the variability of total microcystin concentration in water samples and recommend sample volumes for laboratory analysis. Furthermore, Austin's research has examined the occurrence of measurable microcystin in Ozark streams under baseflow conditions and investigated sediment phosphorus release in Lake Fayetteville. He has a h-index of 7, with 31 total publications and 191 total citations.
