Biography

Karin Hüssy is a professor specializing in fish biology and population ecology at the Technical University of Denmark. Her research focuses on interdisciplinary fisheries sciences, particularly how physical and chemical properties of the environment interact with biological processes to regulate otolith biomineralization and chemical composition. This work utilizes the chronological information stored in otoliths to glean insights into fish growth, habitat use, and movement, ultimately aiming to improve fish stock assessments and sustainable management practices. Hüssy's research interests include the development and understanding of fish otoliths as a 'black box', and she explores a broad range of topics at both the individual and population level, employing a multidisciplinary approach that encompasses physiological processes and statistical modeling. Her teaching contributions include courses on Fisheries Ecology Assessment and Fisheries Oceanography, and she is actively involved in various ICES expert working groups focused on fish stock assessment.
