Cyclone, heatwaves and the monsoon in one frame. #CycloneRemal in the Bay of Bengal, heatwaves over India and Pakistan, and the southwest monsoon picking up its pace.

Experimental forecast system for Monsoon Rain in Mumbai developed by students of Centre for Climate Studies, IIT Bombay , it says onset on the day after tomorrow (Friday, 7th June, 2024) with a good rain of 10-25 mm across the city. Soon, we will come up with a portal here. #mumbairain IIT Bombay

Using systematic satellite observations of land surface temperature and SM during soil dry-downs, the spatially-explicit global distribution of the critical SM threshold of plant water stress and its drivers is uncovered. Super grateful to Philippe.ciais

Late update: Check our recent ERL article lead by Ashish Navale where we studied the role of land feedbacks in persistence of the Cyclone Gulab (2021) over the Indian landmass. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…

It took some of the forests of Uttarakhand as high has 5 years to reach normal conditions when wildfires impacted them in 2016. New IEEE GRSL paper led by Arya studies forest fire resilience. With Indu J. ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/docum…

New algorithm called "Dynamic Vegetation Parameter Algorithm (DVPA)" developed to get better estimates of Vegetation Optical Depth (VOD). Led by Preethi, published in Remote Sensing of Environment. We will develop a global VOD dataset using DVPA. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We estimate critical soil moisture to identify regions of land-atmosphere interactions across seasons using soil moisture and diurnal soil temperature covariability. New paper now out in Water Resources Research. Congrats, Sandipan Paul and Andrew Feldman dx.doi.org/10.1029/2024WR…

How well can we identify critical soil moisture from diurnal soil temperature? Our EF paper led by Sandipan Paul with Andrew Feldman, compares our approach with two methods. Our method is more reliable, revealing strong L-A coupling in overlooked regions. doi.org/10.1029/2025EF…
