- PhD Candidate, Oceanography, University of Southampton
I am a PhD researcher in physical oceanography at the University of Southampton. My work focuses on understanding how Indian Ocean warming affects the South Asian monsoon, particularly through changes in sea surface temperature, air-sea interaction, and large-scale climate variability.
