General Information
Dr. Tanushree is a dedicated environmentalist with a strong background in natural resource management and societal development. Her research focuses on water resource management, particularly groundwater dynamics, recharge mechanisms, and sustainability in semi-arid regions. She utilizes advanced hydrological modeling, remote sensing, and GIS technologies to study water systems. She has received several prestigious awards, including qualification in the National Eligibility Test for Lectureship and a Junior Research Fellowship from the Department of Science and Technology. She also earned a Short-term Doctoral Fellowship from the Indian Council of Social Sciences Research for her contributions to society. Currently serving as an Assistant Professor at KKIASR, Dr. Tanushree has completed one year in this role, bringing expertise in scientific instruments, geospatial software, and hydrological modeling. She has published four research articles, one book chapter, and one editorial in the field of Environmental Sciences. Her expertise has also earned her a place as a panelist for World Water Day 2025, where she discussed Innovations and Policies for a Water-Secure Future.
