I am a post-doctoral fellow (December 2019– onward) at the University of Toronto. My current research examines the energy balance of green roofs and greenhouse gas fluxes from green roof substrates.
I received a Ph.D. in biometeorology (2020) from the University of Toronto, where I studied some biogeophysical and biogeochemical aspects of post-fire and post-harvest boreal stands. The current post-doctoral project is an excellent augmentation of my Ph.D. work that allows me to use similar tools and techniques to solve problems in a different ecosystem. I also study biochar as a climate change mitigation tool. My overarching research goal is to study biometeorological issues to help achieve "climate-smart" management in managed ecosystems spanning from tropical to boreal biomes.
After receiving B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Forestry from the Department of Forestry and Environmental Science, Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh, I worked as an Assistant Professor (2009–2013) at the same university. My struggles with resources for teaching and research in Bangladesh has led me to use open-source teaching and learning materials extensively. I am nourished by open-source resources and committed to contributing to their development. Additionally, to make climate research more accessible in countries where it is needed the most, I have co-founded a company CredoSense Inc. that builds cost-effective environmental sensor-logger systems.
