Research Interest

My research interests focus on Quaternary geology and geomorphology with the emphasis on the role of glaciations in Quaternary climate variability in Indian sub‐continent. The methodology employed in the above study involved field based geomorphological mapping, remote sensing supported by GIS environment, facies architecture of the sediments to ascertain the environment at macro‐scale and geochronology using optical dating.
