Biography
Rahisha Thottolil has completed her MTech (Geo-Informatics) with thesis work titled Integrated Coastal Zone Management of Mangalore Coast, India. Currently she is interacting and working with CSIR-CMMACS/KSRSAC on the various aspects of climate change and its impact studies in coastal Zone. She has clear understanding of atmospheric science, particularly global climate modeling, multi-source and multi-format data handling, remote sensing and GIS. She has handled large datasets from global climate model simulations and multi-source observation data. She works with ease on HPC systems using UNIX/LINUX, GIS and GrADS. She possesses strong analytical abilities and is self-critical in analysis of the results. Her ability to pick up new concepts, master necessary techniques and carry out careful interpretation makes her a researcher with great potential. She is particularly good at quantitative modeling of processes using remote sensing and GIS models.
