 About
Peter Martin
Peter Martin is the Program Chief Scientist for Desert and
Eastern Sierra Nevada Studies, California Water Science Center,
United States Geological Survey. Mr. Martin has 30 years of
experience in collecting and analyzing geohydrologic and geochemical
data in arid and semi-arid environments. A common characteristic
of studies that he manages is the utilization of cross-discipline
research—integrating the fields of geology, geophysics, geochemistry,
and numerical modeling to help solve complex geohydrologic
problems. He has developed, assisted in the development, and
directed the development of many regional ground-water flow
models in California that have been used to help understand
the ground-water flow systems and were ultimately used to
help local and state agencies effectively manage available
water resources. He has authored or coauthored more than 50
publications related to geohydrology in arid and semi-arid
environments. Mr. Martin received a B.S. in geology from Indiana
University in 1975 and a M.S. in hydrology and water resources
from the University of Arizona in 1980. He is a California
State Registered Geologist and Certified Hydrogeologist.
