Record spike in aerosols in Hindu Kush region: Study
Hindustan Times
|October 13, 2023
The Hindu Kush-Plateau Himalaya-Tibetan region has been witnessing an alarming increase in aerosol levels that could be driving increased temperatures, altering rainfall patterns, accelerating glacier retreat and initiating changes in the hydrological cycle in the region, a new analysis by the Indian Space Research Organisation's (Isro) Physical Research Laboratory has shown.
The study, the first of its kind, used ground-based observations, satellite data, and simulations, to assess aerosol characteristics and radiative forcing change in energy flux in the atmosphere caused by natural or anthropogenic factors of climate the - in several locations in the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP), the Himalayan foothills and the Tibetan Plateau. Data shows that the aerosol radiative forcing efficiency (ARFE) - which shows the effect of anthropogenic aerosols on the radiative fluxes at the top of the atmosphere-was significantly higher in the Himalayan foothills.

'WE SHOULD STOP USING THE TERM PAN-INDIA ACTOR'
Priya Mani Raj, who is set for the release of The Family Man Season 3 next month, has worked in both regional and Hindi industries, but is averse to the tag of “pan-India actor”. Expressing her disapproval, she says, “We're all Indian at the end of the day. You get work in other industries, and that's a good thing, but you don't call someone a ‘regional actor’ when they come from Bollywood to the South. For years, actors from both sides have worked across languages. Why are we suddenly labeling them now? Accept us for who we are and for the characters we play.”
