I am an Earth-science researcher working in the domain of hydrogeology, cryosphere dynamics, remote sensing and geospatial science. My research combines field observations, satellite data and computational approaches to understand environmental processes and landscape change in complex mountainous systems.
Ladakh Himalaya · Satellite + ground-based observations · InSAR / PolSAR
Permafrost zonation, active-layer fluctuation and environmental controls across the Western Himalaya.
Satellite observations, SAR backscatter and deformation time series for landscape and ground-subsidence studies.
Groundwater systems, recharge processes, connectivity, hydrogeological variability and vulnerability.
Hydrogeochemical signatures and δ¹⁸O–δD tracers to constrain water sources and mixing.
Spatial modelling, terrain analysis, environmental indices and geospatial integration.
Climate–landscape interactions, ecosystem change and environmental monitoring in mountain systems.
Evaluation of the influence of rapid urbanization on groundwater dynamics, hydrochemistry and vulnerability using hydrogeological, geochemical and geospatial analyses.
Investigation of source waters, flow pathways and hydrological connectivity using hydrochemical signatures and stable hydrogen and oxygen isotope compositions.
Characterization of permafrost distribution and active-layer dynamics in the Western Himalaya through integrated InSAR and PolSAR-based remote-sensing approaches, supported by field observations.
Programming, satellite-data processing, spatial analysis, modelling and visualization across multidisciplinary Earth-science problems.
