The carbon isotope data may be used to quantify the relative proportions of the three main emissions sources of black carbon in this region: biomass burning, traffic and coal combustion.","citations":"Bikkina, Srinivas; Andersson, August; Kirillova, Elena N.; Holmstrand, Henry; Tiwari, Suresh; Srivastava, A.K.;  Bisht, D.S.; Gustafsson, \u00d6rjan (2019) Air quality in megacity Delhi affected by countryside biomass burning.
