Hi from Canberra, you can reach me at richard@laugesen.com.au and on BlueSky.
I work on water-related risk reduction at the intersection of model innovation, decision theory, and water resource management. I'm a senior research scientist at the Bureau of Meteorology and doctoral researcher at University of Adelaide. Please reach out if you are interested in collaborating. Reasearch profile at ORCID (needs updating).
Please approach my engineering consultancy at Pintar Projects to discuss any predictive systems or decision science support you may need. Building systems to support operational decisions gets our attention.
I lead the Hydrological Models team. We are a group researchers creating innovation in hydrologic science and land-surface modelling. Our focus is on supporting the Bureau's current and future customers, at scale. Please contact me at richard.laugesen@bom.gov.au regarding any Bureau, WMO, or ISO projects I am involved in.
I occasionally teach science at a local high school and love it. Influencing tomorrows leaders and rebels is the best way I know to tackle things like disinformation and the climate emergency.
Globally, bleeding disorders are underdiagnosed, have limited access to treatment, and cause substantial health, social, and economic impacts. I've been part of the ACT committee of Haemophilia Foundation Australia for a number of years and am happy to chat if you want to know more.
