Hello

Introduction

I am a PhD researcher in Natural & Applied Sciences at TERI School of Advanced Studies, India, working at the intersection of remote sensing, GIS, hydrogeology, environmental modelling, and artificial intelligence.

My research focuses on developing scalable geospatial frameworks for groundwater contamination assessment across heterogeneous hydrogeological and environmental settings. I integrate multi-source Earth observation datasets with machine learning and deep learning approaches to investigate contamination processes, predictive uncertainty, spatial variability, and exposure risk.

Research Focus

My work primarily investigates groundwater contaminants including uranium, fluoride, and arsenic using AI/ML-driven geospatial approaches. I work extensively with satellite-derived environmental datasets, hydrogeochemical observations, climatic variables, land-surface processes, and anthropogenic indicators to build predictive environmental intelligence systems.

Current research themes include:

groundwater contamination prediction
geospatial artificial intelligence
environmental exposure analytics
Earth observation integration
hydroinformatics
spatial uncertainty analysis
multi-resolution environmental modelling
governance and policy diagnostics

Interdisciplinary Interests

Beyond groundwater systems, I am deeply interested in interdisciplinary Earth systems research integrating climate interactions, cryosphere-hydrology linkages, environmental sustainability, geospatial intelligence, and policy-relevant environmental risk analytics.

I am particularly interested in understanding how environmental systems interact across scales and how geospatial technologies can support resilient and evidence-based environmental governance.

Technical Expertise

My work involves large-scale geospatial data harmonization and computational environmental modelling using:

Google Earth Engine

Python-based geospatial analytics

machine learning and deep learning workflows

GIS and remote sensing methodologies

spatial statistical analysis

environmental exposure modelling

cloud-based Earth observation systems

Current Directions

I am currently focused on developing transferable and interpretable AI-driven frameworks for groundwater contamination prediction and environmental risk assessment across India. My broader goal is to contribute toward scalable environmental intelligence systems that bridge Earth observation, computational modelling, sustainability science, and policy applications.
