About
Dr. Ashutosh Sharma is an Assistant Professor at Department of Hydrology and Joint Faculty at International Centre of Excellence on Dams (ICED) at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. He was trained as a Civil Engineer and specialized in Water Resources Engineering (Hydroclimatology). During his Ph.D. at IIT Guwahati, he worked on a resilience-based approach to examine the response of terrestrial ecosystems to droughts. He also worked at Penn State University as a postdoctoral scholar in Multiscale Hydrologic Processes and Intelligence (MHPI) group, where he developed a machine learning tool for large-scale hydrological predictions. He was awarded Water Advanced Research and Innovation (WARI) and Shastri Indo-Canadian Institute (SICI) fellowships to carry out research projects at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), USA, and McGill University, Canada, respectively.
The EcoHydro Lab at the Department of Hydrology, IIT Roorkee, is a multidisciplinary research group focusing to understanding the complex interactions between ecosystems, water, and climate in the context of a rapidly changing world. By combining field studies, remote sensing, and advanced modeling techniques, the lab aims to provide valuable insights for sustainable water resource management and environmental conservation.
