India
The idea behind the APnA City Program is to create a baseline for air pollution for cities across India. With a starting point and an estimate of source contributions to pollution, policy makers can chart out strategies to improve air quality. One of the main issues is that data in an easy to use format has been hard to come by and most of the ...

Catalyzing Clean Air in India
Air pollution poses a major health risk globally, weighing on economies and people. In 2017, an estimated 4.13 to 5.39 million people died from exposure to PM2.5 pollutants - one of the most harmful forms of air pollution. Tackling air pollution requires sustained political commitment and comprehensive programs across sectors. The three pillars of an effective air pollution management ...
Air pollution prediction with machine learning: a case study ...
The present work investigates six years of air pollution data from 23 Indian cities for air quality analysis and prediction. The dataset is well preprocessed and key features are selected through the correlation analysis. An exploratory data analysis is exercised to develop insights into various hidden patterns in the dataset and pollutants ...
Surface and satellite observations of air pollution in India during
The strict nationwide lockdown imposed in India starting from 25 th March 2020 to prevent the spread of COVID-19 disease reduced the mobility and interrupted several important anthropogenic emission sources thereby creating a temporary air quality improvement. This study conducts a multi-scale (national-regional-city), multi-species, and multi-platform analysis of air pollutants and ...
Monitoring Industrial Pollution in India
The starting point for this project is the ground-breaking RCT by Duflo et al. (2013, 2018), which studied the role of information and monitoring in regulating industrial air pollution in Gujarat. When Duflo et al. began this work in 2010, air pollution levels were rising across industrial cities in Gujarat.
Air Pollution and Human Health in Kolkata, India: A Case Study
Urban air quality in most megacities has been found to be critical and Kolkata Metropolitan City is no exception to this. An analysis of ambient air quality in Kolkata was done by applying the Exceedance Factor (EF) method, where the presence of listed pollutants' (RPM, SPM, NO2, and SO2) annual average concentration are classified into four different categories; namely critical, high ...
Modeling the Spread of Air Pollution Across India Using ...
In a Tortoiseshell: In his Writing Seminar R3, Arya Maheshwari uses correlation networks to model air pollution data gathered in India. This excerpt, which is a condensed version of his introduction, demonstrates how quantitative papers can effectively utilize global and scholarly motives to communicate the importance of their high technical studies to a lay audience.
A Methodology of Assessment of Air Pollution Health Impact B ...
When modeling these effects it is important that the models must be epidemiologically meaningful and robust (that is, insensitive to variations in the model parameters). The objective of this paper is to propose a methodology for the assessment of the health impact of air pollution. The proposed methodology involves the construction of models ...
Air pollution in Delhi, India: It's status and association with
Abstract. The policymakers need research studies indicating the role of different pollutants with morbidity for polluted cities to install a strategic air quality management system. This study critically assessed the air pollution of Delhi for 2016-18 to found out the role of air pollutants in respiratory morbidity under the ICD-10, J00-J99.
