Scientific career
ThesisPhosphorus cycling in the Lake Mendota ecosystem : internal versus external nutrient supply (1995)

Patricia Soranno is an academic at Michigan State University known for her work on limnology, landscape ecology, and data-intensive ecology. She is an elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and was the founding editor-in-chief of Limnology and Oceanography: Letters.

Education and career

[edit]

Soranno received her B.S. from University of Notre Dame in 1987 and her M.S. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1991. In 1995 she earned her Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she worked on phosphorus cycling in Lake Mendota. She moved to Michigan State University, where she was promoted to professor in 2012.[1] Soranno was the inaugural editor in chief for Limnology and Oceanography Letters,[2] a role she held from 2015 until 2019.[3]

Research

[edit]

Soranno is known for her research examining freshwater ecology and multiple ecological scales. Her early work modeled non-point sources of phosphorus[4] and quantified the spatial patterns in chemistry and biology across a series of lakes in North America.[5] She moved on to classification of lakes[6] and defined scaling parameters to investigate ecological problems in lakes.[7] Soranno's research has determined the degree of water quality monitoring for lakes is less in communities with more under-represented groups,[8] and she has examined the prevalence of data sharing in different scientific fields.[9][10]

Awards and honors

[edit]

Sorano was named a fellow of the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography in 2018,[11] and was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2019.[12] In 2020, the Ecological Society of America elected her as a fellow.[11]
