Daene McKinney Ph.D. Cornell University, 1990 |
||
| Daene McKinney researches planning and management of water resources. He is especially interested in integrated management considering engineering, economic, environmental and political considerations in transboundary basins, developing and applying numerical methods for simulation, optimization, the uncertainty analysis of water resources planning and management problems, and the development of laboratory and field experimental techniques for the characterization and remediation of aquifer and groundwater contamination. Professor McKinney is a member of the Committee to Review the IJC Lake Ontario-St. Lawrence River Study of the National Academies of Science, National Research Council, Water Science and Technology Board. He also serves as the editor of the Journal of Water Resource Planning and Management and is an author of the recently published book Bridges Over Water: Understanding Transboundary Water Conflict, Negotiation, and Cooperation. |
