Implications of land use transitions and climate change on local flooding in urban areas: an assessment of 42 Indian cities
(Land Use Policy, 2020-03-20)
Urban development induced land transitions affect urban hydrology, resulting in increased flooding risks. Climate change-related precipitation changes are an added complexity to the flood risks of cities. This study examines ...
Sustainable development and carbon neutrality: integrated assessment of transport transitions in India
(Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020-08-29)
Dependence on crude oil imports, high correlation with economic growth, and contribution to air pollution cause the transformations in transport sector in India to have significant ramifications. Moreover, these transitions ...
Impacts of changes in commercial non-coking coal grading system and other coal policies towards estimation of CO2 emission in Indian power sector
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-02-02)
In India, coal-based electricity is a leading cause for greenhouse gas emissions. However, many uncertainties prevail in the emissions estimation from coal-fired plants due to the dynamics of varying net calorific values ...
An integrated bottom-up optimization to investigate the role of BECCS in transitioning towards a net-zero energy system: a case study from Gujarat, India
(Elsevier, 2022-06-15)
Bringing down energy system emissions to zero is a key step to restrict the global temperature rise to “well below 2 °C”. Recent studies have extensively discussed the integration of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage ...
