Assistant Professor
Bio
I am interested in interdisciplinary science to address different challenges related to sustainability and sustainable development. I study the water cycle, ocean dynamics, geodetic hazards, geomorphology, climate change, and different physical parameters of the environment using remote sensing data and field surveys. I am also interested in the sustainability of local communities under changing demographic and socio-economic conditions. I mainly use Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) Satellite, various climatic data, Python, MATLAB, and Generic Mapping Tool (GMT) products.
