Managing Variability and Change Lab

We undertake multidisciplinary and applied research to enhance water management under an uncertain future.

About us

Our Lab aims to develop new knowledge, tools and methods to improve our management of water resources under variability, change and uncertainty. Our research addresses the challenges in representing variability and change in a way that directly relates to and informs water management decisions. We are a multi-disciplinary team and much of our group’s research is applied and done in partnership with industry.

Members of our group will focus on addressing key questions on how climate variability and change impact on catchment hydrology, environmental health and the built environment.  We aim to incorporate this improved understanding of climate risks within decision science to inform policy.
