Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jennifer L. Bouldin conducts research focused on aquatic toxicology and environmental monitoring, particularly within agricultural watersheds in Arkansas. Her work investigates the impact of agricultural practices on water quality, examining nutrient and sediment loads, as well as the toxicity of specific chemical pollutants to aquatic organisms. She has published studies on the effects of agricultural intensity on the Cache River Watershed and the impact of vegetative cover in ditches on sediment and nutrient transport.

Her research also extends to the toxicological responses of key indicator species, such as *Ceriodaphnia dubia* and *Pimephales promelas*, to various chemical contaminants, including hydroquinone and catechol following metal oxide treatment. Bouldin also explores alternative methods for toxicity testing, such as the use of LED light for reference toxicity testing and culturing. Her work contributes to understanding the ecological health of freshwater systems, including long-term ecological changes observed in mussel bed assemblages in the Buffalo National River.

Bouldin holds a strong record in securing federal funding, notably receiving $719,800 from the NSF for the acquisition of an UHPLC-TQ and DESI system to support interdisciplinary ecotoxicological and analytical research at Arkansas State University. She leads a research group and collaborates with several faculty members at Arkansas State University, including Jae A. Chester, Mohd Kotaiba Abugazleh, and Orithea Z. Regn. Her scholarly output includes 53 publications, with an h-index of 17 and over 1,300 citations.
