Hey there!

I am a final year master's student in the Department of Earth Sciences at IISER Kolkata , working with Prof. Supriyo Mitra in the Computational Seismology Laboratory for my MS thesis project.

My Interest lies in studying the crustal and upper mantle structure, to draw inferences about the tectonic processes which have been shaping them up over geologic timescale. I am especially interested in studying the tectonic processes operating towards the end of a subduction scenario when continent-continent collision kicks in. To do so, my target is to use a combination of Observational Seismology(as observations is an extremely important component of research in Earth Science), Geodynamics(This makes it possible to study the dynamics of past tectonic processes under changing physical conditions), and Petrology(You should get your composition right!!). I believe that approaching an Earth Science problem from different perspectives is important as it help reduce uncertainties of a model compared to both geophyical and geochemical point of view and help obtain better Lithospheric models.

This website results from a lot of hard work, 99% of which comprises Procrastination and 1% of actual work. I have finally settled for this Jekyll theme as it looks aesthetic and simple enough, is easy to maintain and I do not plan to do a lot of fancy web development. On a different note, I spend a pretty Mundane Routine daily. Eat. Sleep. Code. Sleep.....The Purpose of my codes is mostly to decipher information from the wiggly seismogram.
