The study focuses on how the black carbon particles move towards the Himalayas with the help of wind movement. The thickness of black carbon in the atmosphere was calculated and determined how long does it stay in the air. Various instruments like Fine Particle Sampler, Aethalometer, and Sun Photometer will be used to derive the black carbon emission.
