Welcome to my website! I am mainly interested in vegetation modeling and in understanding the impact of disturbances on terrestrial ecosystems and forest carbon sequestration at various spatial and temporal scales. Recent evidences of frequent and severe disturbances on different ecosystems suggest unprecedented impacts from the increasing human population and climate change. My research studies aim at early detection of future vegetation risks and quantification of ecosystem conditions and carbon for alternate management and climate scenarios. In my studies, I mostly use geospatial methods, remote sensing, process-based models, and machine learning approaches. Thanks for dropping in. You are welcome to browse around this site to know more about me and my research. Please drop me a line at [email protected] if you have any questions or comments. Recent Publications
