Judith A. Lundberg

Judith A. Lundberg was an influential scientist specializing in the study of organisms known as copepods—tiny aquatic creatures essential to marine and freshwater ecosystems. Her work contributed to understanding their biology, ecology, and role in the food web, which helps scientists comprehend how aquatic environments function and how they may be affected by changes such as pollution or climate shifts. Lundberg’s research advanced ecological knowledge and supported conservation efforts by providing insight into these crucial, yet often overlooked, components of aquatic life systems.
