Abstract
We are pleased to introduce a new feature of the Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education: Perspective Pieces. We invited experts in the water arena to give us their perspectives on a water issue near and dear to them. In this issue, Dr. Len Shabman, Senior Fellow at Resources for the Future, shares his thoughts on the federal role in river management and the need to reframe the discussion. Dr. Don Siegel, Emeritus Professor of Earth Sciences at Syracuse University, offers us some thought provoking insights on the current state of public discourse on environmental issues. Perspective pieces were a hallmark of our journal since its inception as Water Resources Update in 1964 and our editorial team wanted to reemphasize this feature in 2019 after a long absence. So, please enjoy Dr. Shabman’s and Dr. Siegel’s pieces and we invite you to consider sharing your perspectives on an important water issue with our readership. We look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,

我们很高兴向大家介绍《当代水研究与教育》杂志的一个新特色:透视作品。我们邀请了水领域的专家向我们介绍他们对与他们密切相关的水问题的看法。本期,“未来资源”高级研究员Len Shabman博士分享了他对联邦政府在河流管理中的作用以及重新组织讨论的必要性的看法。锡拉丘兹大学地球科学名誉教授唐·西格尔博士为我们提供了一些关于环境问题公众话语现状的发人深市的见解。自1964年作为《水资源更新》创刊以来,透视文章一直是我们杂志的一个标志,我们的编辑团队在长期缺席后,想在2019年重新强调这一特点。所以,请欣赏沙布曼博士和西格尔博士的文章,我们邀请您考虑与我们的读者分享您对一个重要的水问题的看法。我们期待收到您的来信。真诚的,Karl W.J. willard和Jackie F.
