Professor of River Systems Science and Policy
WRM Program Chair
Primary Appointment
Environmental Science & Policy Division
Martin is on leave from Duke University for 2016 while he serves as Senior Conservation Finance Fellow at the Department of Interior’s Natural Resources Investment Center.
Martin Doyle is Professor of River Science and Policy, and the Director of Water Policy at the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions. His work focuses on the science and management of rivers throughout the United States, and he is writing a book on the history of America's rivers. He has received a Guggenheim Fellowship (2009) and a National Science Foundation Early Career Award (2005), and for bridging environmental science and policy, in 2009 was named the inaugural Frederick J Clarke Scholar by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
