Sarosh Alam Ghausi

Education:

2020 - Present: Ph.D at Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry, Germany

2018 - 2020: Masters in Water resources from IIT Bombay, India

2014 - 2018: Bachelors in Civil Engineering from AMU, India

Research Interest:

My research interest includes Hydrology, Extreme events and Land-Atmosphere interactions. I am currently working on using thermodynamic limits as a constraint to understand surface-atmosphere exchange.
