Books By S Ramachandran - Author

Dr. S. Ramachandran is a Professor in Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), Ahmedabad. He received advanced degrees in Physics from the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara and PRL, Ahmedabad in 1990 and 1996 respectively. He was a Visiting Research Staff Member in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program, Princeton University during 1997-1999. He has worked extensively on the measurements of aerosol properties using state-of-the-art techniques as well as modeling their impacts on radiation budget, atmospheric temperature and climate using radiative transfer and general circulation/global climate models. His principal research interests are measurements and modeling of aerosols in the troposphere and lower stratosphere, and their radiative impacts. His current research projects address aerosol composition, aerosol-cloud interactions, and the role of black carbon aerosol in climate. Dr. Ramachandran was involved in the first of its kind observations of aerosol- and associated radiative forcing over
