02. PhD Objectives

Hybrid AWS Network

Designing, deploying, and evaluating a network of low-cost, LoRaWAN-enabled automatic weather stations in Meghalaya and Goa for high-resolution datasets.

Early Warning Framework

Developing real-time multi-hazard early warning frameworks fusing conventional AWS networks with dense hyperlocal sensor systems for forest-fire detection.

Dual-Tower Flux Analysis

Building a low-cost, dual-tower flux analysis system inspired by LICOR-based eddy covariance towers for pan-India deployment.

Tethered Balloon System

Launching low and medium altitude platform (LMAP) tethered balloon systems up to 800m for forest fire monitoring in Goa.
