About

I am Dr. Mainul Islam, graduated with a Ph.D. in Geography from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, specializing in Remote Sensing and GIS. My doctoral research study entitled "Groundwater Dynamics in Quaternary Alluvial Aquifers of the Purba Bardhaman Plain (District), West Bengal." Currently, I am working as a Senior Research Officer at the Centre for Geoinformatics, Jamsetji Tata School of Disaster Studies, Tata Institute of Social Science, Mumbai. I have substantial experience in academic teaching and research, having served as a guest lecturer of geography at Jadavpur University, Dinabandhu Andrews College and Surendranath College and as a research assistant (JRF) at Aliah University in Kolkata, West Bengal. I have published four scientific research articles in peer-reviewed, Scopus-indexed journals and a few of my research studies are currently under review. My primary teaching and research interests include hydrology, particularly groundwater hydrology; disaster management; emerging environmental issues like climate change and water scarcity; advanced cartography, including remote sensing and GIS; geographical thought; and modern approaches to economic and social development. Looking forward, I am motivated to explore further and develop sustainable solutions to contemporary environmental challenges.
