Hello sir I am here as I want to get the name list of the Ongoing Projects of Department of Earth and Space Sciences of Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology of Government of India so will you please provide me the list??

The Department of Earth and Space Sciences of Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology of Government of India is the youngest department of the institute.

The department is inter-disciplinary in nature, bridging gaps between technology and its application to fundamental research areas in physical sciences. At IIST, Earth & Space Sciences spearheads the task of undergraduate teaching in B. Tech Physical Sciences.

This Department is engaged in research in the broad subject areas of

-Astronomy & Astrophysics

-Atmospheric Sciences

-Geology

-Remote Sensing


As on 17th May 2016 following are the Ongoing Projects of this Department:

-Continental construction of the Altaids (Central Asian orogenic belt) compared to actualistic examples from the Western Pacific.

-Study of Moon and Mars analogues: Investigations on orthopyroxene-olivine-spinel (OOS) group of minerals and cumulate rocks in India based on remote sensing, mineralogical and geochemical methods.

-Radio continuum mapping of ionized emission associated with infrared (IR) bubbles.

-Geological and spectral studies of terrestrial analogue rocks: Implications for Mars exploration.

-Potential impact of land use chage on the regional climate of India subcontinent.

-Deep crustal processes during the evolution of archaean Nilgiri block, southern India

-Object based high resolution image analysis for land slide and land use, land cover classification.

-Developing virtual reality model for disaster simulation.

-Improving the operational weather forecast of NARL using hybrid ensemble variational data assimilation method for WRF model.

-Aerosol - cloud intraction under varying meteorological conditions.
