My research focuses on the evaluation of land surface model coupled to community microwave emission model. Concentrates mainly on evaluating the brightness temperature generated using community microwave emission model, which can be used for land data assimilation to reduce the error in soil moisture simulation.

Information on availability of water is vital for proper planning, management, efficient utilization etc. of water resources for ecological sustainability. Inadequate numbers of gauging sites makes it difficult to account for surface water resources. Regional frequency analysis provide means for prediction of quantiles at locations with scarce gauging sites. The estimation in presence of non-stationarity and spatial dependence has been concerning and requires further insight.

I am working on probabilistic models for prediction of hydroclimatic extremes like heavy rainfall and floods in a changing climate. I am interested in understanding the behaviour of the extremes of hydrological variables under different modelling assumptions like stationarity, dependence etc

I work on quantifying the climate and catchment effects on streamflow using the Budyko framework.The Budyko framework is based on the hypothesis that the ratio of mean annual evapotranspiration to mean annual precipitation is a function of the ratio of mean annual potential evapotranspiration to mean annual precipitation. The total change in streamflow is calculated between the reference and the test period, further, the change in streamflow is decomposed into climate and catchment components using the Budyko framework.

One of my major research motives involve investigating uncertainties

in storm surge prediction along Indian Coast using ADCIRC( Advance Circulation) Model . The increased wind intensities and changes in the landfall location can alter storm surge characteristics in this region. Therefore, a better understanding of storm surge behaviour can be deduced by differentiating its behaviour at coastal locations and deep water locations via. hind-casting of past cyclones that have occurred in the Indian Sea, with particular focus on the Bay of Bengal.

My research focuses on "Error and Uncertainty Modeling of Multi Satellite-based Precipitation Estimates (SPEs) over Indian Land Region". Work involves development of a statistical model for quantification of error and uncertainty in SPEs. Outcomes of the work would be useful for data provider for error and uncertainty quantification in SPEs.

My study focuses on estimating the current and future mass balance of few Himalayan glaciers through conceptual and data driven approaches using satellite remote sensing data and low altitude meteorological data. The outcomes of the study will give an idea about the health of the glaciers and also its response to climate change. This study also aims at generating a database for glacier mass balance for Western Himalayan glaciers, which is lacking at present.

My research focuses on the physical processes governing a glacier to estimate the current and future glacier volume in the Eastern Himalayas. This is to be done with the effective use of remote sensing data sets and techniques thus minimizing the need for tedious and challenging glacier field surveys. The end product of this research will serve various researchers, hydrologists and water resource planners to come out with a deeper understanding of glaciers behaviour and thereby leading to a more effective decision making of this remote and less studied fresh water reservoirs.

My research involves development of GIS based multi model Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS) for soil and water conservation. Considering the need for practical application, it is endeavoured to keep the developed SDSS simple, reliable and informative tool by including simple soil erosion models and modules for uncertainty analysis, watershed prioritization and conservation measures. The proposed system will be a very useful tool for policy makers, agricultural scientists and local stakeholders in making proper decision for watershed management activities.

My research explores how the physical growth of the city of Mumbai has translated into the betterment of Quality of Life (QoL) of the people; this is studied by comparing and relating the spatial metrics measured from the remotely sensed images of the city with the various domains of a QoL survey (that includes objective and subjective indicators) to be conducted. The outcome of this research will serve as a tool for the policy makers and planners to gauge the impact of their developmental activities on the QoL of the people.
