John Clune, PhD
John Clune is a Research Hydrologist who has worked at the Pennsylvania Water Science Center since 2007.
My core research is focused on understanding
- the environmental drivers and responses of nutrients and sediment in streams with an emphasis on the effectiveness of conservation practices, and
- the geochemistry of groundwater focusing on the quality of drinking water for the protection of public health.
