Zeroing In with Dr. Roxy Mathew Koll | On Climate Change, Monsoons and Oceanography

"August rain: the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time. "- Sylvia Plath

The rains, be it the mango showers that herald the end of the summer or the torrential downpours accompanying cyclones, have always invoked a wide range of emotions in everyone’s heart. But did you know that the oceans that surround us actually play a very important role in driving the rains?

For this week’s episode, we discuss the role of the oceans in climate change and many more, with Dr. Roxy Mathew Koll, an eminent oceanographer from the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology.  Dr. Koll took us on an exciting ride, giving us  a sneak peak into the life of an oceanographer who studies the forces of weather that shape the world.

The team for Zeroing In for this episode included Arun S, Murala Aman Naveen, Kanthan Narayanan, Kriti Raj,  Shaun Ethan Phangcho, Shreya Mishra and K. V. N. G. Vikram. Featured season poster by Naman Jain. Zeroing In season’s theme song featured herewith, 'Kuikkukisu', created by Ethan Phangcho.
