Short Biography:

Sukhen Goswami is a researcher working in hydrogeology and water resources, with a focus on coastal and riverine environments. His interests lie in understanding groundwater–surface water interactions, hydrogeochemical processes, and the impacts of climate change on vulnerable water systems, particularly in Bangladesh. He combines field-based investigations with geospatial techniques, including GIS, remote sensing, and Python-based analysis, to explore complex environmental challenges. His recent work includes groundwater quality assessment, urban climate studies, and the development of approaches to estimate groundwater levels in data-scarce regions. Sukhen is interested in interdisciplinary research that contributes to sustainable and resilient water management. He is open to collaboration on research projects in hydrogeology, environmental science, and related fields.
