We contributeÌýinnovative decision frameworks for deeply uncertain problems in environmental management and infrastructure.

  • Post-2026 Colorado River Basin negotiations:ÌýÌýour research with CADSWES supportsÌýnegotiations to find a new operating plan for the Colorado River Basin, featured in the

  • Decision support for complex problems: we have worked on diverse engineering domains including water resources planning,Ìýcoupled water-energy systems, drinking water treatment, design of sustainable materials, and hydrologic modeling

  • Many Objective Robust Decision Making (MORDM):Ìýwe have made fundamental contributions in decision making under deep uncertainty. In MORDM, coupled optimization and simulation models are evaluated using ensembles of potential futures, evaluating the robustness and vulnerability of management plans
