BRIEF BIO
|
Dr. Manoj M.G. obtained his Masters in Meteorology from Cochin University of Science and Technology in 2005. Later he joined as a Junior Research Fellow at the Centre for Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences in the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. He was awarded PhD in Atmospheric and Space Science from Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM, University of Pune) in 2012. Followed by a stint in IITM as Project Scientist, he moved on to the Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (ESSIC), University of Maryland, USA for the post-doctoral research where his focus was on the intricate research problem of aerosol radiative effects on monsoon and deep convection. Having completed the tenure, Dr. Manoj joined the Advanced Centre for Atmospheric Radar Research (ACARR), Cochin University of Science and Technology as Research Scientist in 2015. He is presently working as Scientist – D at ACARR, CUSAT. He is also engaged in regular teaching for the Masters Degree Programs
