Intercomparison of MODIS, MISR, OMI, and CALIPSO aerosol optical depth retrievals for four locations on the Indo-Gangetic plains and validation against AERONET data
TL;DR: In this paper, an intercomparison of aerosol optical depth (AOD) retrievals from satellite-based MODIS, Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR), Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) instrumentation over Karachi, Lahore, Jaipur, and Kanpur between 2007 and 2013, with validation against AOD observations from the ground-based Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET).

TL;DR: In this paper, a mass balance method is applied to assess main source contributions to PM2.5 and PM10 levels in Karachi, and the concentrations of PM2, PM10 were found to be 75μg/m3 and 437m3 respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Morphology and Composition of Particulate Matter in an Urban Environment.
TL;DR: The morphology and composition of PM in two size fractions (PM2.5 and PM10) during November 2016 in Peshawar was measured using Fourier Transform Infra Red (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
UV-Accelerated Photocatalytic Degradation of Pesticide over Magnetite and Cobalt Ferrite Decorated Graphene Oxide Composite
Asma Tabasum,Mousa A. Alghuthaymi,Umair Yaqub Qazi,Imran Shahid,Qamar Abbas,Rahat Javaid,Nimra Nadeem,Muhammad Zahid +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the photocatalytic potentials of catalysts were investigated against acetamiprid degradation, and it was shown that the efficiency of overall Fenton's process relies on the combined effects of contributing factors, i.e., pH, initial oxidant concentration, catalyst dose, contact time, and acetamide load.
Journal ArticleDOI

Khan Alam,Azam Mukhtar,Imran Shahid,Thomas Blaschke,Hussain Majid,Said Rahman,Rehana Khan,Naheed Rahman +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the characterization of carbonaceous species including elemental carbon (EC), organic carbon (OC), total carbon (TC), crustal (AI, Ca, Mg, Fe, S, and Ti) and trace metals (As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sn and Zn) in PM_(10) samples collected from an urban site in Lahore, Pakistan.
