Jonathan Tawn is a statistician whose research in environmental modelling studies the prediction of extreme events. He works closely with environmental scientists and engineers to ensure that frontline statistical research is available to decision-makers. The practical impact of his work is founded on his theoretical advances in the understanding of multivariate extreme statistics, and he combines mathematical power and innovation with leadership in the real-world implementation of these ideas.
