ABSTRACT
In the present study, the atmospheric concentrations of Carbon Monoxide (CO) over India during COVID-19 (2020) were studied by comparing it with 2019 and 2021. COVID-19 has created an undesirable impact all over the world. However, as a blessing in disguise, these measures have a positive effect on the environment due to closing the mass gathering places. The work has undergone using the TROPOMI instrument, on-board Sentinel-5 Precursor. The results, evidence that human activities like transportation in Delhi, Industrial activities near Indo-Gangetic Plain have sharply fallen during the lockdown phase. On Contrary, there is a sharp increment in the area of Thermal power plants being coal-based. On the whole, the mean concentration of CO over India has minimal change due to long lifetime (1~2 months), indicating the duration of the (68 days) lockdown did not capture prompt and short-term atmospheric change. © 2021 IEEE.
