Study finds El Niño shifted India's air pollution patterns by altering weather and transport
Ahead of India's peak pollution season, a new paper titled 'Air quality in flux: The baffling ENSO transition in India' was published in the journal Atmospheric Pollution Research. The study examines how shifts between La Niña and El Niño conditions changed atmospheric circulation across the country. Researchers found these changes also affected how fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is transported. The shifts further altered weather conditions that determine whether pollution disperses or becomes trapped.
