Research & Experimental work

I have extensive experience in researching Atmospheric Volatile Organic Compounds (BVOCs) spanning from my Ph.D. studies to my current endeavors. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have focused on investigating BVOCs across diverse terrestrial and oceanic regions. Collaborating with esteemed colleague, I have contributed to pioneering research in this field. During my Ph.D. thesis and post-doctoral periods at PRL, I have worked on new and challenging research projects to understand the emission and atmospheric processes of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) over South Asia. I also have significant experience in instrumentation, deployment, and field and laboratory experiments. In PRL, I have been using state-of-art and novel instruments such as high mass- and time-resolution proton transfer reaction-time of flight-mass spectrometer (PTR-ToF-MS), thermal desorption-gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (TD-GC-FID), and C₂H₆ and C₅H₁₆ VOCs analyzers to measure numerous VOCs in different environments over the land and ocean.
