UNDERSTANDING THE BEHAVIOUR OF CONTAMINATION SPREAD IN NAGARJUNA SAGAR RESERVOIR USING TEMPORAL LANDSAT DATA

The present study investigated the variability of CH₄ over coal fields, power plants, and wetlands using the long-term GOSAT and TROPOMI data. Interestingly noticed a slow growth rate of CH₄ over the second-largest wetland areas of India. The Sundarbans wetland growth rate competes with coal sites with the production of over 30 MT. Further mapped CH₄ concentrations against the emissions in the Agro-climatic zones and found a statistically high correlation in the Indo-Gangetic Plain regions.
