• Selected as an intern under MITACS GRI program for a 12 weeks internship at the Western University, London, Ontario. Mitacs is a national, not-for-profit organization that has designed and delivered research and.
• Developed a multivariate index to monitor droughts by exploring the various existing univariate indices
• Processed 50 runs Canadian Regional Climate Model 4 precipitation and temperature data for 151 years using R
• Computed the drought index by dividing the data into two time periods, Historical: 1951-2010 and Future: 2040-2100, and determined the duration and severity by defining a threshold value of the index
• Analysed the dependence of duration and severity using the concept of copulas and estimated the return periods
• Scrutinized the changes in the trend of the likelihood of drought occurrences from the historical to the future period

• I as the summer research fellow of Indian Academy of Sciences(IAS):
• Studied existing hydrological models for rainfall-runoff simulation
• Developed a modified channel morphology-based model for runoff simulation by combining the two models in C++
• Extracted data sets from US geological basins based on location, availability and size of the data, etc.
• Statistically analysed the performance of the modified model with the observed data using R-squared values
