We study Earth system connections to address climate change.
Explore opportunities and join us.
We explore the interconnected dynamics of oceans, rivers, the atmosphere, and land to unravel the Centre for Ocean, River, Atmosphere and Land Sciences, generating knowledge that supports climate resilience and sustainable development.
About us
We offer: -MTech programmes -PhD programmes
We study how the atmosphere, oceans, and ecosystems interact to better understand climate challenges. Our work spans monsoons, extreme weather, and climate impacts across diverse regions, while also examining coastal systems, blue carbon, and deep-ocean processes. Using advanced observations, AI/ML, and GIS, we monitor ecosystem health and support climate adaptation.
We bring science, technology, and real-world data together to understand how our planet works and to create solutions for a changing climate.
