Climate and Air Quality Research Group
(CARES)
Welcome to the CARES Group!
The CARES Group is directed by Srinidhi Balasubramanian. We are housed in the Environmental Science and Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay.
Our team explores research related to air quality and climate change. Specific research areas include the sources, fate and multi-scale impacts of reactive nitrogen from agriculture and food systems, high-spatial-resolution air quality modelling, and characterization of air quality in high-occupancy microenvironments.
