Dr. Rozana Ghandy | Digital Data | Best Researcher Award

 Islamic Azad University, Tehran | Iran

Dr. Rozana Ghandy is an academic researcher in physical oceanography, pursuing doctoral studies at the Science and Research Branch of Islamic Azad University, where her work focuses on analyzing heat fluxes over the North Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf using advanced weather reanalysis datasets. She holds a master’s degree in oceanography from Islamic Azad University, North Tehran Branch, where she investigated geostrophic currents through field measurements and satellite observations, and a bachelor’s degree in science from Isfahan University. With extensive teaching experience across multiple educational levels—including physics instruction at pre-university, high-school, and laboratory settings—she has contributed significantly to academic development and educational leadership. Her research interests include air–sea interactions, ocean circulation, climate variability, regional sea dynamics, and the application of remote sensing in marine studies. She has presented and published studies on physical parameters in coastal regions, surface flux behavior, and standardized approaches to air–sea heat flux assessment across key marine basins. Her academic achievements include competitive rankings in national entrance examinations and scholarships recognizing her scientific potential. Overall, her work reflects a dedication to advancing understanding of ocean–atmosphere processes and contributing to the broader field of marine and climate science.
