Spatio-temporal variation in air quality and unexpected pollution levels during the lamp event over the Indo-Gangetic Plain in the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic

“…Extremes of cold, heat, and rainfall characterize the annual weather cycle, which is governed by seasonality. 17 The present study was carried out at six highly polluted cities, namely Agra, Ghaziabad, Lucknow, Meerut, Noida and Varanasi in the Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP). Five out of six cities of concern were mentioned as the most polluted regional cities by the World Health Organization (WHO).…”

Impact of Climate Change in Indian Agriculture: Special Emphasis to Soybean (Glycine Max (L.) Merr.)

We need to urgently develop our own integrated assessment simulation models in which cropping systems; water use and socioeconomic parameters need to be brought together for assessing the impact of environmental change in diverse regions of the country [44,45].…”
