Of late, intensive farming for higher food production is often associated with many negative
implications for soil systems, such as decline of soil organic matter (SOM), increase in risks …

India is currently the second-largest emitter of black carbon (BC) in the world, with emissions
projected to rise steadily in the coming decades. In view of the large variations associated …

Aerosol emissions from biomass burning are of specific interest over the globe due to their
strong radiative impacts and climate implications. The present study examines the impact of …

Air pollutants emissions due to the burning of crop residues could adversely affect human
health, environment, and climate. Hence, a multicity campaign was conducted during crop …

Abstract In Southeast Asia and Vietnam, rice residues are routinely burned after the harvest
to prepare fields for the next season. Specific to Vietnam, the two prevalent burning practices …

Quantifying emissions from crop residue burning is crucial as it is a significant source of air
pollution. In this study, we first compared the fire products from two different sensors, the …

The present study examines the spatial, seasonal and inter annual variation of biomass
burning and its impact on regional aerosol optical properties over Northern India using multi …

In this study, we explored the relationships between the satellite-retrieved fire counts (FC),
fire radiative power (FRP) and aerosol indices using multi-satellite datasets at a daily time …

Air pollution is the most difficult challenge India is facing today, and anthropogenic biomass
burning (ABB) is one of the major and least understood sources, leading to serious health …

Develo** countries like India require proper control strategies for reducing the enormous
