Tirthankar Ghosh
Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Monash University, Central University of Jharkhand
About
Tirthankar is a PhD student at IITB-Monash joint PhD Program and is a part of the Department of Civil Engineering, IIT Bombay, and the School of Earth, Atmosphere, and Environment, Monash University, where his research focuses on how the glaciers in the Ladakh region would evolve with climate change using satellite datasets, climate data, and numerical modelling techniques and exciting field works around the high-altitude terrains in the Himalayas. He is working under the guidance of Prof. RAAJ Ramsankaran (IITB), Prof. Andrew Mackintosh, and Dr Felicity McCormack (Monash University). His research would help in advancing the understanding of the glacier-climate interaction and future water availability in the region. Beyond the realm of academia, Tirthankar is a hobbyist photographer, capturing the raw beauty of nature through the lens, and his love for the Himalayas extends to hiking, where he finds inspiration and solace in the majestic landscape. He is also a certified mountaineer, connecting his passion for research and exploring the mountains.
