Babitha George

Babitha George is a Researcher in the Department of Earth Sciences at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam), affiliated with the Faculty of Science. She holds the role of Project Researcher in the active AVENGERS WP3 project focusing on aerosol radiative forcing and climate change. Her research spans extreme rainfall analysis, tropical cyclone dynamics, and ensemble methods in climate modeling.

Her work emphasizes sensitivity analysis for extreme weather events, such as those in India’s Kerala region and the Himalayas, using frameworks like TIGGE ensembles. She has also contributed to studies on the predictability of tropical cyclones like Nargis (2008) and explored plasma physics through corrections in IMF variations.

Her current project (2023–2026) addresses radiative forcing and emissions, linking her atmospheric research to broader climate change challenges. George’s publications reflect a blend of meteorological modeling, geophysical dynamics, and interdisciplinary approaches to environmental science.
