WATER RESOURCES CONCERNS IN THE NEXT DECADE: SEPTEMBER ESSAYS

摘要

This issue completes the series of essays from authorities, which is the second part of our "Future-ing" project. This issue's essays are from: Dr. Peter E. Black, Distinguished Teaching Professor of Water and Related Land Resources, Emeritus, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Syracuse, New York; President-Emeritus-AWRA; and Associate Editor of the first issue of IMPACT. Dr. Peter H. Gleick is President of the Pacific Institute, Oakland, California; a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences; a MacArthur Fellow; and admits to having water on the brain. Next issue we will have a tie-up of the essays. We will summarize the comments as we can, with an effort to highlight common concerns, and emphasize consequences for future planning. Early in 2009, look for an email survey soliciting your reactions and opinions about "Water Resources Concerns in the Coming Decade." The essays this year have highlighted a variety of concerns we will be facing in the next decade.
