NEW DELHI: The Decision Support System (DSS), the only source apportionment study currently available to identify sources contributing to Delhi's PM 2.5 pollution, has been failing to accurately forecast the impact of stubble burning this season, officials have said.

In recent days, DSS forecasts projected stubble burning could contribute over 30% to Delhi's PM 2.5 levels. However, actual contributions have remained below 10% on all days, based on later fire counts. The DSS operates under the Ministry of Earth Sciences and is managed by the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (ITM) in Pune.
