...…is a very prominent feature of the SA branch, as indicated by f57 and f60 values and also by a large number of fire counts from MODIS fire-count data (Bhattu and Tripathi, 2015), dominantly in Punjab, Haryana, and a few places in Pakistan; (e) coal-based thermal power plants in Delhi, Punjab,…...

...The Dc at other places such as Kanpur varied from 50 to 200 nm, for SS ranging from 0.18 to 0.60 (Bhattu and Tripathi, 2015), compared to which Dc for Delhi is lower (17–142 nm, for SS ranging from 0.1 % to 0.8 %), implying that a larger regime is available for activation....

...Very recently, a few AMS based studies (Bhattu and Tripathi, 2015; Chakraborty et al., 2016b, 2015) have been conducted in IGP which showed the dominance of OA in submicron aerosols and provided new insights into OA evolution....

...The calculation revealed a value of 0.5, which has been previously used in the majority of the field campaigns around the world, and this value has also been found satisfactory for this location in our previous AMS based studies (Bhattu and Tripathi, 2015; Chakraborty et al., 2015)....
