Master of Physics
I received my BS-MS degree from IISER Mohali, India, majoring in physics with a minor in data science. My main research interest lies in determining the emission fluxes and sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other climate-related atmospheric species, in particular, halocarbons. I have a keen interest in programming and modeling. I use the atmospheric transport models coupled with Bayesian inversion tools to quantify GHG emissions.
Over the last few decades, a significant increase in anthropogenic GHGs has become a big concern for global climate, human health, infrastructure, and ecosystems. I estimate these threatful GHG emissions using atmospheric observations combined with atmospheric transport modeling, the so-called “top-down” approach. I use statistical optimization techniques to determine the best estimates of the fluxes of different atmospheric species.
