FLUID DYNAMICS OF CLIMATE

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.
