Summary
Jonathan Lamontagne is an Assistant Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Tufts University with eight years of post-degree experience focused on decision support and uncertainty analysis for water-energy-food-land systems. He brings deep technical expertise in flood frequency analysis, hydropower operations optimization, and robust decision-making for multi-purpose reservoir systems developed during doctoral and postdoctoral work at Cornell. His research blends statistical hydrology, high-dimensional optimization, and diagnostic tools for coupled human-climate models (including work with GCAM) to quantify risks and guide adaptive infrastructure management under global change. Jonathan’s collaborations with federal agencies and national labs translate theoretical methods into practical tools for engineers and policymakers. He is motivated by making interdependencies explicit—linking infrastructure decisions to land use, energy, and food systems—to produce more resilient, actionable strategies. Based in Medford, MA, he combines rigorous quantitative methods with stakeholder-relevant problem solving to improve management of complex water resources.
