TL;DR: In this article, in-situ and space-borne observations reveal an extremely high loading of particulates over the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP), all year around, since the pollutants undergo long range transport from their source regions to the Indian mainland, leading to an outflow of continental pollutants into the Bay of Bengal (BoB), and a net advection of desert dust aerosols into the IGP from southwest Asia (SW-Asia), northwest India (NW-India) and northern Africa (N-Africa) during summers.

TL;DR: In this article, a study has been carried out to find the change in the extent of Himalayan glaciers during the last decade using IRS LISS III images of 2000/01/02 and 2010/11.

TL;DR: A new angular velocity is estimated for the India plate and contemporary deformation rates in the plate interior and along its seismically active margins from Global Positioning System measurements from 1996 to 2015 at 70 continuous and 3 episodic stations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new insights on the time-averaged surface velocities, convergence and extension rates along arc-normal transects in Kumaon, Garhwal and Kashmir-Himachal regions in the Indian Himalaya from 13 years of high-precision Global Positioning System (GPS) time series (1995-2008) derived from GPS data at 14 permanent and 42 campaign stations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a standardized database using 54 sites from various databases by applying consistent postprocessing for data-driven estimation of gross primary productivity (GPP) and net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE).
