CENTRE FOR EARTH SCIENCES & HIMALAYAN STUDIES
Estd on 13th Oct, 2021
VISION :
To excel in earth science research application in
Arunachal Himalaya
The Centre’s research interests encompasses a range of broad themes, including the dynamics of the earth’s interior, earthquake source physics, seismic imaging, paleoclimate reconstruction, surface processes and mass transport, petrology, groundwater pollution, and anthropogenic impacts on the environment. Our research is grounded in interdisciplinary approaches that bridge the gap between basic and applied earth sciences.
The Centre is promoting the use of:
Scientific investigations into geodynamics of earth science related problems,
Local weather forecasting, mapping and mitigation of geo hazards using geotechnical and geochemical investigation, soil consolidation and stabilization for infrastructure development,
Studies of geological evolution of Arunachal Himalaya formation
Interpretation and analysis of seismology, plate tectonic, crustal studies for deciphering oil, mineral potential,
Conservation, rejuvenation of water resources and environment,
Creation of database on natural resources with link up facilities at Itanagar.
