Expert Perspective: UC Irvine's David Feldman on 'How to address the American megadrought?'
With the American West suffering from its worst megadrought in 1,200 years, and the Mississippi River as its lowest levels in recent history, water resource management is key to the America’s future.

He specializes in water resources management and policy, global climate change policy, ethics and environmental decisions, adaptive management, and sustainable development.
