David Lerner becomes Visiting Professor at Peking University

.

David Lerner has been appointed as a Visiting Professor at Peking University (PKU), often seen as the highest ranking university in China.

Professor Lerner is the Leader of the Catchment Science Centre (CSC) and is based at the Kroto Research Institute.

This appointment arises from the close connections between the Catchment Science Centre at Sheffield and the Centre for Water Research (CWR) in PKU.

As part of the ceremony, David gave a lecture "Can we have real rivers in Urban areas?". The two groups are intending to work together in the Heihe basin, developing integrated models of hydrology and economics to support decision making in this inland basin.
