Dr Joseph Guillaume is a Research Fellow in the Institute for Water Futures and the Fenner School of Environment & Society.

Dr Guillaume specialises in uncertainty management in decision support, with a particular focus on water resources and the use of integrated modelling. As part of an interdisciplinary approach, research includes development of new algorithms and tools for uncertainty analysis and decision support, modelling, text analysis, interviews and workshop based approaches to understanding current uncertainty management practices, and action research exploring alternative futures and institutional arrangements to improve organisational capacity to tackle an uncertain future.

A collaborative approach to research is preferred, working closely with industry and government partners, as well as undergraduate (special topics and Advanced Studies Courses), Honours, Masters and PhD students. Dr Guillaume is always keen to hear from good students and to collaboratively develop topics of mutual interest.

Dr Guillaume previously worked at the Water and Development Research Group at Aalto University (2014-2019), and holds an ARC Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA) focused on advancing uncertainty prioritisation in water resource management. He is Associate Editor for Journal of Hydrology and on the Editorial Boards of Environmental Modelling & Software and Frontiers in Water: Water and the Critical Zone.
