Dr. Shridhar Jawak is a Project leader/Scientist at the Climate and Environmental Research Institute NILU.
Shridhar possesses more than 15 years of research experience in Earth observation (EO) and remote sensing (RS) applications, primarily focused on the Earth’s cryosphere. He has leadership, coordination and management experience gleaned from his involvement in research infrastructure projects based in Svalbard. Dr. Jawak also served as a steering committee member and project participant in the EEA-funded Cryosphere Integrated Observatory Network on Svalbard (CRIOS) project.
Before moving to Norway, he was a project scientist at the National Centre for Polar and Ocean Research (NCPOR), Goa, India, where he was involved in EO and RS activities in polar science particularly focusing on Antarctica, Himalayas, and the Arctic. Dr. Jawak’s research interests predominantly revolve around remote sensing of the Earth’s cryosphere, with a specific focus on utilizing ground, airborne, and spaceborne sensors to discern spatiotemporal changes in the Arctic, Antarctic, and Himalayan regions.
At NILU his leadership role centers on active participation in a spectrum of ongoing research infrastructure and Earth observation projects within the ATMOS department. These projects include Aerosol, Clouds, and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS) along with its national node, ACTRIS Norway and spin off projects (ENVRIHUB NEXT, POLARIN, CARGOACT). On the EO side, he is involved in Copernicus In-situ component (COINS) and ESA validation Data centre (EVDC) activities.
