Centre for Climate Studies
The Centre for Climate Studies (CCS) was initiated at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, in January, 2012, at the doctoral level as an interdisciplinary program. The mandate of the Centre for Climate Studies is to undertake interdisciplinary research and education to develop a scientific understanding of regional climate change and connect it to its impacts (environment, resources, socio-economic) and effective responses (technology and adaptation).

Assistant Professor My research interest lies in large-scale atmospheric dynamics, South Asian summer monsoon, and extreme climate. My work focuses on understanding diverse atmospheric phenomena elucidated by atmospheric dynamics and thermodynamics. Associate Professor Primary research focus is on assessing the short- and long-term exposures to different environmental stressors such as air pollution and transportation noise and their adverse health effects. Specific interest lies in quantifying atmospheric and source aerosols emissions, their physical, optical, and chemical characteristics and associated toxicity. Professor We the Hydro-Remote Sensing Applications (H-RSA) Group led by Dr. RAAJ Ramsankaran mainly focus on the use of satellite, GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and aerial remote sensing measurements to study various aspects of water cycle.
