University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill geographer, Martin Doyle, Ph.D., has been named the inaugural recipient of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Institute for Water Resources’ Frederick J. Clarke Fellowship. The institute created the fellowship to provide scholars with the opportunity to help advise the corps on policy issues related to its environmental mission. Doyle, an expert in river processes and policy, will advise the corps on ecosystem restoration, infrastructure decommissioning, and the definition of a river. Doyle is director of the UNC Institute for the Environment’s center for watershed science and management and an associate professor in the College of Arts and Sciences. During the fellowship, he is based at Fort Belvoir, outside Washington, D.C. He will return to UNC next August.
