Frank Alan Ward is an economist and academic contributor to the fields of environmental and water resource economics. He is a Distinguished Achievement Professor at New Mexico State University in the College of Agriculture, Consumer, and Environmental Science where he has been teaching since 1978. He has authored over 115 peer-reviewed articles in journals, two books, and several book chapters. He was inducted in the DARE Hall of Fame in 2022 for his lifetime achievements and contributions at the state, national and/or international level.[3]

Background[edit]

Ward received his B.S. degree in Economics at Colorado State University in 1970, his MS in Economics at Colorado State University in 1975, and his PhD in Economics at Colorado State University in 1978. His PhD dissertation, “The Welfare Effects of a Market Allocation of an Exhaustible Resource,” won an American Agricultural Economics Dissertation Award for 1978.[4]

Academic career[edit]

Since completing his PhD he has been Assistant Professor of Natural resource economics (1978-1983), Associate Professor of Natural Resource Economics (1983-1987) Professor of Natural Resource Economics (1988-2011), and Distinguished Achievement Professor of Natural Resource Economics (2011-present) at New Mexico State University.

By 2024, Ward has authored more than 115 peer-refereed articles in journals and two books as well as a number of book chapters. He is one of the most heavily cited resource economists in citations to journal articles. His papers consistently appear in top scientific, environmental, and natural resource journals and he has more than 5,000 Google Scholar citations, four contributions with more than 200 citations each and over 10 with more than 100 citations.[5]

His research focuses on water resource economics, climate change adaptation, management of depletable resources, and institutional analysis of surface water and aquifers for several of the world’s major river basins. Some of these basins include the Colorado, Rio Grande, Missouri, High Plains Ogallala domestically, as well as the Nile, Tigris-Euphrates, Jordan, and Amu-Darya internationally.

Some of the research projects he has worked on include assessing and managing surface water system as well as aquifers in countries like Israel, Mauritania, Costa Rica, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kenya. His work has also focused on reducing economic costs caused by drought and climate change, as well as a 2024 work investigating economically sustainable solutions for pumping in the High Plains Ogallala Aquifer. In 2022, he received a lifetime achievement award from Colorado State University.

During his tenure at NMSU, Ward was designated in 2011 as a Distinguished Achievement Professor, acknowledging his achievements in scholarly research, teaching and mentoring of students.[6] He was recently ranked in the top two percent of scientists worldwide by Stanford University and Elsevier. He is an elected Western Agricultural Economics Association Fellow in 2021. Within these roles, Dr. Ward believes that the most rewarding aspects are being able to assist students with opportunities to help them achieve their career ambitions, seek the recognition they deserve, and discover their potential beyond what they would have achieved on their own.
