This study examines the spatial and temporal variations of key air pollutants in Rajsamand District, Rajasthan, from January 2015 to December 2019, using Sentinel-5P TROPOMI data. The pollutants analysed include carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), formaldehyde (HCHO), sulphur dioxide (SO2), methane (CH4), and aerosols. The findings reveal...

Drinking water sources with groundwater arsenic (As) contamination face multifaceted challenges in the removal and supply of fresh drinking water resources. To eradicate this problem, bioremediation has evolved to become more effective than other chemical and physical removal processes in its cost-effectiveness, high removal efficiency, and lesser...

Landslides are complex, dynamic processes influenced by erosion, weath-ering, tectonics, and gravity, triggered by various geotechnical, biological, miner-alogical, and hydrological factors. Detailed studies on landslide mechanisms typi-cally focus on specific high-risk cases. The stability of slopes and the physical and mechanical properties of...

Mountainous regions around the world are at the forefront of climate change and natural disasters. The unique geomorphological features, diverse ecosys-tems, and climatic extremes of these areas create breathtaking landscapes; however, these same characteristics also make them hotspots for environmental hazards. The frequency and severity of...

With a total of 16 chapters, it provides a holistic picture of this pressing environmental issue. First, this book delves into the geological and hydrological factors that make the Himalayan region susceptible to landslides and employs advanced geophysical methodologies to improve future hazard assessments. Additionally, it examines the...

The frequent climatic extreme events in Bangladesh’s coastal region significantly affected the local agricultural system. To meet the growing food demand, coastal regions must adopt climate-smart agricultural practices to sustain food production. This study examines the farmers’ behavioral determinants for adopting climate-smart agricultural...

This study evaluated the quality of groundwater in Chandrapur Taluka, Maharashtra, using geospatial techniques and data from 2014 and 2018. The study assessed various water quality parameters such as chloride, fluoride, pH, residual sodium carbonate (RSC) and sodium adsorption ratio (SAR). The findings showed that chloride concentrations were...

Rajasthan faces significant environmental challenges, including the pressing need for effective climate change mitigation strategies. Recognizing afforestation as a vital tool in this endeavor, this study leverages the latest in remote sensing and geospatial analysis to map out the state’s afforestation potential. The goal is to assess land...

Dengue fever (DF) is a pervasive public health concern in tropical climates, with densely populated regions, such as India, disproportionately affected. Addressing this issue requires a multifaceted understanding of the environmental and sociocultural factors that contribute to the risk of dengue infection. This study aimed to identify high-risk...

This study investigated the historical climate data and future projections under the SSP5-8.5 scenario for Jammu, Kashmir (J&K), and its adjoining regions in India. Agriculture is a critical economic pillar of this region, making it highly vulnerable to climate change. This study focused on temperature and precipitation trends. Statistical analysis...
