Dr. Glenn Warner is a Professor in the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment at The University of Connecticut and Director of the Connecticut Institute of Water Resources, which is part of a national network of 54 water institutes. Dr. Warner received his Ph.D. and M.S. in Agricultural Engineering from the University of Minnesota and his B.S. in Engineering from Iowa State University. He teaches courses in the areas of watershed hydrology, dynamic modeling of ecosystems, and water and solute movement in porous media. Predicting runoff from landscapes using dynamic, deterministic models, as well as understanding the physical processes of runoff generation are Dr. Warner's general areas of research. Some current research topics include: 1) the influences of land use and land treatment on the infiltration capacity and associated surface and shallow-subsurface flows; 2) the roles of soil flora and fauna in the development of pathways for water and solute movement; 3) the application of watershed models to predict potential changes in stream flow with changes in land use and climate; and 4) the role of water conservation and water reuse in optimizing available water for both instream and out-of-stream uses. As Director of the CT IWR, he is currently involved in a state-wide planning effort for Connecticut involving analyses of both available water and water demand for the next 25 years. He was one of the lead PI's in the Fenton River study that analyzed the impacts of the UConn well field on flow and fisheries habitat in the Fenton River. Another current interest is the study of ancient water systems in Rome.
