About me
I am interested in ocean physics and modelling of ocean circulation. My research focuses mostly on internal waves, including their formation, propagation, and dissipation in the ocean. I also study boundary current and mesoscale eddies using numerical modelling and observations. I am currently working as a scientist at the CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography in Goa, India.
