Group Head
Dr. Shikha Singh works as a Scientist at the Development of Skilled Manpower (DESK) Program at IITM.
She has completed a Ph.D. titled "Role of biases in Climate Models in Large Scale Air-Sea Interaction.
Her primary research interest is to see how the large scale biases in the Ocean part of the climate model affects the simulated interannual variability. She has examined the CMIP-5 models to see whether the internal biases in Temperature and Salinity in the climate model has any role in the simulated N^2 profiles and thereby the resolved Baroclininc Speeds.
Her study showed that the baizes in the Brunt-Vaisala frequency in the simulated climate model cause overestimation of the first dominant mode of baroclinic mode speeds in most of the CMIP-5 models. It tends to feedback to the simulated periodicity of Interannual Events such as Indian Ocean Dipole Mode.
Further, she is interested in is simulations and model development of ODTM. She has examined the Mixed Layer variability and governing mechanisms in terms of mixing energetics in the Arabian Sea of north Indian Ocean.
She is currently interested in examining the various mixing parameters causing the deep-ocean biases in climate models.
She has published Three papers to her credit.
