Carbon Management in Tropical and Sub-Tropical Terrestrial Systems (PDF)

with emphasis on land degradation processes. Debashis was PI & Co-PI of various experiments in 15 research projects. Debashis worked as a visiting scientist at CMASC, at Ohio State University, Columbus, in 2013 and conducted research with Prof. Rattan Lal on soil erosion and carbon dynamics. In 2014 he worked on applied use of fallout radionuclides for assessing erosion induced carbon losses from various phases of erosion. Debashis has around 55 peer reviewed articles in scientific journals and was involved in the organization of various national and international conferences.



Dr. Biswapati Mandal is currently working as Professor in Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, West Bengal and engaged in research on carbon management in soils under rice-based cropping systems, soil quality and micronutrient management in deficient soils with a group of young researchers. He is a good mentor of research students and supervised 42 Ph.D. and 31 sponsored research projects funded by different National and International agencies. He is recognized with a few awards including those from the Prime Minister and President of India and fellowships by National Academies and Societies for his fundamental contributions in soil science.
