Annual Awards - 2017
Ministry of Earth Sciences Annual Awards - 2017 National Award for Geoscience & Technology Prof. Kolluru Sree Krishna Prof. Kolluru Sree Krishna is currently serving as a Professor at Centre for Earth and Space Sciences, University of Hyderabad. Prof. Krishna had initiated his career as Seismologist in reputed international Petroleum Industry and served there for more than a year during 1983-84 for exploration of hydrocarbons in onshore regions of Krishna-Godavari and Cauvery basins of eastern peninsular India. Then, he had joined CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa as a Scientist and worked there until 2017 for carrying marine geophysical research of the Indian Ocean. In addition, he has also served the positions of a Professor, Dean and Senator in Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research (AcSIR) during 2010-17. Prof. K.S. Krishna obtained his B.Sc, M.Sc(Tech) in Geophysics and PhD in Marine Geophysics from Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. While working at CSIR - National Institute of Oceanography, Prof. K.S. Krishna has participated over 30 research expeditions (totalling to about 1300 days) in various parts of the Indian Ocean for conducting numerous geophysical experiments. Besides, he has been actively involved in international programmes, particularly with Russia, UK, USA and France for carrying collaborative research leading to understand the Earth’s internal structure and dynamics. He had made significant contributions in the field of Marine Geophysics, particularly understanding the structure and tectonics of the Indian Ocean. His extensive research led to understand the complexities associated with Sediment deposition patterns in the Bay of Bengal – link to continental collisions, Himalayan tectonics and Asian monsoon Continental rift initiation and evolution between India and East Antarctica Lithosphereic responses due to volcanic emplacements and mantle plume interactions with mid- ocean ridge spreading centers Plate break-up process in the Indian Ocean in response to continental collisions Prof. -
