In the present study, trace gases (NH3, NOx, CO and SO2), PM2.5 and meteorological parameters were carried out at 5 different monitoring sites [CSIR-National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi and other 4 air quality measurements (AQMS) sites (Anand Vihar, Mandir Marg, Punjabi Bagh and R.K. Puram) of Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC)] of megacity Delhi, India, from January 2013 to December 2015...
State Government of Delhi had adopted odd–even scheme on vehicles plying in megacity Delhi to understand and improve the air quality of Delhi. To understand the effect of odd–even scheme on the concentration of pollutants, we have analysed the concentrations of chemical constituents [organic carbon, elemental carbon, water soluble inorganic components, trace elements and stable carbon and nitrogen...
This paper assesses the quality of ozone data of modified Brewer Mast (MBM) balloonborne ozonesonde and its comparison with MOZAIC Data (version 4), TES data (version 6), UARS MLS (version 5), EOS Aura MLS Data (version 5) and SBUV (version 8.1). The stations that have been used for this analysis: Delhi (28.58N, 77.20E) (Ozonesonde, MOZAIC, TES, UARS MLS, AURA MLS and SBUV), Pune (18.53N, 73.85E)...
Mixing ratios of ambient NH3, NO and NO2 were measured in campaign mode at Kolkata a megacity of Indo-Gangetic plain of India to study the diurnal variation and mixing ratios of NH3, NO and NO2 during 24–27 February 2012. The present study has been carried out on campaign based measurement of mixing ratios of NH3, NO and NO2 for short period of time at Kolkata represent the indicative values over...
In this paper, we present mass concentrations of particulate matter [PM2.5, PM10 size fractions and total suspended particulates (TSP)] measured simultaneously over land stations (Kullu, Patiala, Delhi, Ajmer, Agra, Lucknow, Varanasi, Giridih, Kolkata, Darjeeling, Jorhat, Itanagar, Imphal, Bhubaneswar, and Kadapa), mostly distributed across the Indo-Gangetic plain (IGP) of India as well as in the...
Mixing ratio of ambient ammonia (NH3) was measured at various locations of the National Capital Region (NCR) of Delhi, India using a NH3-analyzer during January 2010 to June 2012 in campaign mode. The present study has been carried out on campaign based measurement of mixing ratios of NH3 and NOx for short period of time over the NCR of Delhi represent the indicative values over the region. The...
Ambient trace gases (NH3, NO, NO2 and SO2) and black carbon (BC) were measured along with particulate matter (PM2.5) over the northwestern Himalayan region (Palampur, Kullu, Shimla, Solan and Nahan) of Himachal Pradesh (HP), India in a campaign mode during 12–22 March 2013 to evaluate the ambient air quality of the region. The average mixing ratio of ambient NH3, NO, NO2 and SO2 were recorded as 7...
The Indian subcontinent with Himalayan Mountains on northern side, Bay of Bengal on eastern side, Arabian Sea on the western side and Indian Ocean on the southern side presents a unique natural setting with highly variable climatic features. The seasonal variation in North India is highly pronounced whereas in southern India it is moderate, the coastal areas are influenced by cyclones, north western...
