A brainstorming session for the Climate-Sustainability-Energy vertical of the Frontier Research Programme at IITB was held on Tuesday, October 13th. The Frontier Research Programme is an IITB initiative to position ourselves as national leaders in nine important verticals.
Climate Studies IITB hosted its Advisory Committee (Chaired by Prof. BN Goswami; members Dr. Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, Prof. Rama Govindarajan, Dr. Veena Srinivasan, Dr. Rashneh Pardiwala, Dr. Vinaya Kapoor) on 7th and 8th October 2026.

Atif is visiting Dr. Aditya Aiyer at LeHigh University, October-December 2026.
Ravi was featured in the Phys. Rev. Fluids at 10 Video Series. He spoke about the Asperitas and the Cumulus entrainment papers.
Prof. Beverley McKeon visited the group and the Centre for Climate Studies, September 3rd 2026. She delivered an Institute Lecture on "Taming Turbulence"
Ravi is teaching CM507: Numerical Methods for Climate Science in the August - November semester.
The inaugural Climate Studies In-house Symposium was held on July 23rd, featuring 30 talks from faculty members and PhD students of the Centre.
Ravi is visiting Monash University from June 15-19.
Ravi is visiting ICTS from 3-12 June.
Jayanth presented his work on snowflakes at the 10th International Soft-Matter Conference.
Ravi co-organised (with Vishal Dixit, Jim Thomas, Rajat Masiwal, Divya Praturi and others) the Monsoons workshop at ICTS.
Ravi is teaching CM507: Numerical Methods for Climate Science in the January-April semester, with 60 students completing the course.
Ravi co-organised (with Krishnendu Sinha, Ratul Dasgupta and Jason Picardo) IGM-2026, a meeting of fluid dynamics researchers from several IITs, IISc and ICTS. This is the 21st edition of this event.
Ravi co-organised (with Vishal Dixit) a Discussion meeting on Himalayan cloudbursts. Cloudbursts are a fascinating physical phenomenon, and cause immense loss of lives and property.
Our group is part of the Centre for Climate Studies at IIT Bombay.
We study fluid dynamical phenomena in the atmosphere and the ocean, focussing on small length and time scales which can be studied using high-resolution numerical simulations. These length and time scales are, and will probably remain, unresolved in global climate models. High resolution studies are thus essential in order to understand, and better parameterise, the dynamics on these scales.
The poster below summarises the kind of work done in the group. More details may be found in any of the links on the 'Research' page, and in our published work.
