Current Members
1. Rinku Mahanta (PhD student)
Rinku is working on seismic moment tensor inversion in Uttarakhand
region. He is using and developing python packages (mtuq)
of moment tensor estimation and their uncertainty analysis. He is
also investigating the effect of structure and receiver
configuration on estimated parameters.
2. Nivika Singh (PhD student)
Nivika is working towards development for systematic approach and
database for detection and classification of cryoseismic events in
Himalayan glaciers. These cryoseismic events are related to glacier
slip an
3. Pankaj Lahon
Pankaj is working on moment tensor inversion using 3D velocity
models. He is using NABDEM for fine resolution
(30m) topography and finite-element package SPECFEM3D for wavefield
simulation.
4. Manoj T.M. (Project Associate)
Rahul is working on investigating the effect of topography on
propagating wavefield. He is using ISRO cartoDEM for fine resolution
topography and finite-element package SPECFEM3D for
wavefield simulation.
5. Gaurav Kumar (Post Doc)
Gaurv is working on preparing high-resolution 3D reference model for
central Himalayas for tomographic imaging
6. Navneet Srivastava (Technical Assistant)
Navneet plays a crucial role in software and hardware installation,
maintenance and development.
