Thrilled to share that Prof. Sampat Kumar Tandon visited our lab (SILIKA, IISER Kolkata). His insights on geology and sedimentology sparked some amazing discussions. A true honor to learn from such a distinguished mind in earth sciences!

Congratulations to @SantruptaSaman1 for successfully defending his Ph.D. thesis! 🎉 His work is based upon understanding the effect of #climate_change on #biogeochemical processes in the #terrestrial_aquatic_interface using #stable_isotopes and #biomarkers as proxies.

The latest from our lab. Congratulations to @SantruptaSaman1 for this excellent work, and thanks to @MelissaBerke for patience handling of the manuscript. We tried to show the impact of salinity on isotopic composition of plant derived alkyl molecules. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Congratulations @Ajay66125723 🥳
Congratulations to @Ajay66125723 for receiving the Young Polar Scientist Award in @ncaor_goa @moesgoi @iiserkol He showed the imprint of Southern Ocean stratification in the Antarctic precipitation, a topic i am learning from him.

Congratulations @Biswa_92_Soils ! 💯
One of our most ambitious work on organic geochemistry. We uncovered the full potential of GC-MS/MS during covid lockdown. @SILIKA_Lab @S0H0M_R0Y @AGU_Paleo #productiveInLockdown #easternHimalayas #miocene

The River Yamuna is the largest tributary of the River Ganga. But it's quite unfortunate to see the condition of one of the major rivers in India. A team from @iiserkol is monitoring water quality and sources of contaminants in Delhi. @SILIKA_Lab @PhDVoice @AcademicChatter
