Research Interests

  • My research interests cover a wide range of disciplines including geochemistry of natural waters, hydrogeology, igneous geochemistry and petroleum geology. My academic research was rooted hydrogeochemistry involving major ions trace and toxic elements for the purpose of modeling and managing water quality and quantity processes.
  • Sedimentary geochemistry: sedimentary rocks and sediments are used as a tracer for sediment provenance, as palaeoenvironmental indicator, as indicator of diagenetic processes.
  • Hydrogeochemistry: study of the chemical composition of groundwater, surface water and drinking water
  • Isotope geochemistry: application of stable isotopes (H, O, C, S) to the study of rocks and water.
 
Awards

  • Awarded by CAS-TWAS Fellowship 2014
  • Extensive field work in joint project of ITP, WAPDA, Pak MET and SPARCO in Gilgit-Baltistan region, specifically on high elevation glaciers such as Bharpu & Bualter, Passu, Ghargo, Sachen etc.
  • Determine the cause of water quality deterioration and weathering process from upstream to downstream in Indus River Basin Pakistan. 
  • Evaluate the distribution Arsenic contamination along Indus River basin from its origin till to Panjnad Pakistan, in both surface and ground water.
  • Incorporate the geogenic and anthropogenic origin of arsenic and other trace and toxic elements in drinking waters of Indus River Basin from Kharmong till to Panjnad.
  • Worked and skilled myself with water quality analysis equipment in the Key Laboratory of Tibetan Environment Changes and Land Surface Processes, Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China
  • Learn state of the art hydrogeochemical investigation techniques in Key Laboratory of Alpine Ecology and Biodiversity, Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China
