Journal puts feather in Lund's cap for 'playing chicken'
An environmental engineering journal will be presenting its 2013 Best Policy-Oriented Paper Award to Jay Lund, director of the Center, and one of his former students for their article comparing conflicts in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta to the game of Chicken.
Lund and Kaveh Madani, now an assistant professor at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, used game theory to analyze political strategies among competing stakeholders in the Delta's agricultural, recreational, environmental and water resources.
