DESCRIPTION |
|
Geomorphology is the study of external landscape/architecture of the earth's crust which stands as a testimony not only for the palaeo morphotectonic and morpho-dynamic activities but also the present day geological processes as well, thus making geomorphology significant in understanding the hierarchical evolution of the earth and related resources, environment/ecosystems and disaster proneness. With remote sensing deepening its roots in all fields, the scope of geomorphology too has phenomenally widened as fabrication and animation of modern geologic / geomorphic processes are being easily done by remote sensing. Dr. S.M. Ramasamy, Director, Centre for Remote Sensing and Coordinator, School of Geosciences, Bharathidasan University (BARD), Tiruchirapalli (T.N) has an experience of over 34 years in the yield of Remote Sensing (including over 10 years in geospatial technology) in the domain of Earth System Dynamics and related natural resources, environment and natural disasters. He started his career as Hydrogeologist in 1971 and succeeded to become professor in School of Earth Sciences and founder Director of Centre for Remote Sensing, Bharathidasan University. Owing to his unique blend of expertise in field based research and in academics, he has evolved many innovative programmes in Remote Sensing and Geospatial technology. He has carried out a large number of sponsored research projects in his above area of specilisation, funded by National and International agencies. He has about 7 books / edited volumes and 255 scientific papers in journals and conferences of National and International repute to his credit. He played a pivotal role in seedling the science of Remote Sensing in college and university systems by conducting over 30 training programs for the academicians under the funding of UGC and department of space. |
