Air Pollutions Big Data Analysis of DELHI's Climate Resilience

Abstract Aerosols, minute suspended particulate matter (PM) in the atmosphere, originate from various natural and anthropogenic sources. The physical and chemical properties of atmospheric aerosols depend on their sources and interaction with other gaseous species in the atmosphere. The fine aerosols below the size 2.5-micrometer diameter (PM2.5) are an integral part of air pollution that can penetrate deeply into the lungs and cause health problems associated with the respiratory system. The levels of PM 2.5 in the metropolitan city (e.g. Delhi) are often found to exceed the Indian National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Delhi's air quality has once again plunged into the 'Severe Category’, with the 24-hour average Air Quality Index (AQI) reaching 401 at 6 PM today.

The air pollution control, stringent enough to protect public health in India, can be done only with a coordinated effort across the national, state, and city levels, and across multiple ministries (transportation, power, industry, rural and urban development, health, agriculture, and others).

Abstract

Abstract Aerosols, minute suspended particulate matter (PM) in the atmosphere, originate from various natural and anthropogenic sources. The physical and chemical properties of atmospheric aerosols depend on their sources and interaction with other gaseous species in the atmosphere. The fine aerosols below the size 2.5-micrometer diameter (PM2.5) are an integral part of air pollution that can penetrate deeply into the lungs and cause health problems associated with the respiratory system. The levels of PM 2.5 in the metropolitan city (e.g. Delhi) are often found to exceed the Indian National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Delhi's air quality has once again plunged into the 'Severe Category’, with the 24-hour average Air Quality Index (AQI) reaching 401 at 6 PM today. In Short; 19 of 39 stations in Delhi report AQI above 400, and Jahangirpuri records the highest AQI at 445 anti-pollution measures under GRAP IV in place.
