Dr. Tom Wall is the Climate Resilience Lead in Argonne National Laboratory’s Center for Climate Resilience and Decision Science (CCRDS). CCRDS works to combine Argonne’s deep capabilities in climate science and modeling, advanced computing, infrastructure risk analysis, and decision science to translate climate science and model data into actionable information for decision makers. This information drives proactive resilience planning and investment for industry partners, the engineering and planning sectors, state and local governments, and local communities. Tom also has extensive experience in the area of critical infrastructure analysis and protection, and leads infrastructure-focused projects for the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and state and local governments.
