Abstract:
Delhi is one of the most water stressed cities in the world. This study aimed to explore the potential of Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) as an alternative source of the water supply for Delhi. Mass curve method has been used to understand the feasibility of RWH, indicating that an average roof of 60 m2 in Delhi will collect 3,64,800 L of water in a year for an average family size of five people. The present study assumed that financial constraints, erratic rainfall, unclear legal guidelines, poor public perception, and a lack of commitment from the politicians are possible challenges.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the impact of second wave of COVID-19 lockdown on environmental noise levels of 25 sites in Delhi city and compares the noise scenario during pre-lockdown, lockdown, and post-lockdown periods. The study utilized the noise monitoring data acquired from 25 real-time ambient noise monitoring stations, installed by the Delhi Pollution Control Committee, Delhi, at various sites throughout Delhi city. A significant reduction of up to 10 and 3 dB(A) in day and night equivalent noise levels, respectively, had been observed during the lockdown period as compared to the pre-lockdown and post-lockdown periods. The study also revealed that only nine sites, including four industrial and five commercial zone sites, complied with the ambient noise standards during lockdown period, and no silence or residential zone sites complied with the ambient noise standards even during the lockdown period. A roadmap for environmental noise management and control is suggested. The study also reports the community's perception toward the change in acoustic environment of Delhi city during the lockdown period by conducting an environmental noise perception survey. The present study should be helpful in devising noise control action plans and policy interventions for environmental noise management and control in the metropolitan city Delhi, India.

Abstract:
This thesis is about the juxtaposition of two dominant themes of today’s world – megaurbanization and water management. It sets out to investigate the contemporary water management conditions in a South megacity. In this investigation, the hydraulics serve two purposes: one, as a frame to apprehend various processes that created (and are creating) myriad relationships in this gigantic urban space; and two, as an object of inquiry reveals the genealogy of the ideas or institutions that has led to the spatiotemporal arrangements of the domestic water supply in the megacity. Drawing insights from various analytical perspectives including hydrosocial, urban political ecology, subaltern urbanism, governmentality, postcolonialism, and modernity, the thesis surveys the process of mega-urbanization that shaped the form and design of institutional frameworks, laden with singular and modernist vision of water, and holds this vision and its apparatus – state monopoly and segregation- as key producers of multi-layered and diverse risks in water management for the households, the megacity, and the region. Using results from extensive fieldwork in Delhi, the thesis proposes an alternative view to analyse the contemporary concerns and to suggest possible pathways in megacity water management. Rapid emergence of megacities in global South and related concerns of water supply in these places have been investigated, to a large extent, from binary perspectives of planned/slum; formal/informal; economic good/social good; and efficiency/equity. Taking Linton’s (2010) phrase ‘from waters to water’ as a starting point, the thesis travels back into history to witness the hesitant and incomplete transformation of ‘multiple waters’ into ‘singular and modernist water’ in the megacity. It helps first in dismantling the myth of binary understanding of the megacity; second, in unearthing the fundamental barriers embedded in the contemporary technoinstitutional regime of the megacity hydraulics; third, in reconstructing the cultural landscapes of water in the megacity, which are gradually marginalized and lost in the dominant discourse on demand and supply of water; and fourth, in indicating the presence of spatio-temporality of risks of different orders in the megacity. Next, using empirical results from more than five thousand households in 32 locations within Delhi, the thesis demonstrates the presence of first order risks concerning accessibility, adequacy, quality, affordability, acceptability, seasonal, and source depletion. The management of these risks and the methods of this management, the thesis argues, produce second order risks which are mostly invisible, distant in time and space, uncertain, and politically unattractive. Putting household in focus, the thesis follows a familiar trajectory of measurement of coping strategy; but then it indicates departure by making household as a crucible of ideology and risk management strategies in water management. This innovative approach helps in reconstructing the ideological premise and its workable instruments for the megacity water management, that are as diverse, flexible, dynamic, inclusive, and holistic as a megacity. From knowledge perspective, the thesis contributes the following: first, the binary understanding of a south megacity is a myth and needs to be dismantled as it promotes a singular and modernist vision of water ignoring the local geo-cultural conditions and practices; second, the contemporary megacity water management faces different orders of risks, and its focus on first order risks often remains (or choose to) ignorant of second order risks; third, the household is not only a place to assess the risks and to advance the arguments of willingness to pay, but it is also a significant functional institution to offer ideas and workable solutions, which are local, indigenous, just, and sustainable.

Abstract:
The present study investigates the particle number concentrations and size distributions in the ultrafine and fine-sized regimes over a polluted megacity, New Delhi (28.75° N, 77.12° E), India. The field experiments were conducted from November 2019 to June 2021 including the strict social and travel restrictions (lockdown) imposed by the Government of India aiming to control the spread of Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID 19) pandemic. The different phases of the COVID-19 lockdown witnessed restrictions of varying magnitudes with the significant cessation of anthropogenic sources, viz., industrial, road, railways, and air traffic emissions. The impact of varying urban emissions on particle number size distributions and new particle formation events were examined during these restrictions. The mean total number concentrations were in the range of ~ (2 to 3.5) x 104 cm-3 and depicted a gradual increase (~26%) with progressive unlock of the anthropogenic activities. At the same time, accumulation particle concentrations were doubled. However, ultrafine particles (UFP) (diameter < 100 nm) dominated (50-88%) the total number concentrations during most of the days and several new particle formation (NPF) events resulted in elevated (2 - 5 fold) UFP concentrations. Subsequently, the particles grew to larger sizes with rates ~3.31- 8.37 nm hr-1 . The NPF events occurred during the daytime, and during the events, a clear enhancement in the concentrations of [H2SO4] proxy (2 to 3.5 x 107 molecules cm-3 ; 2-3 orders higher than the non-event values), suggesting the role of strong gas-phase photochemistry. Also, some of the NPF events were associated with increased odd oxygen concentrations [Ox = O3+NO2], indicating the regional nature of the precursors and participation of VOC precursors in nucleation/growth. Interestingly, different classes of NPF events were seen during the strictest lockdown period, whereas more frequent and well-defined NPF events were witnessed when anthropogenic activities were opened up with conditional relaxations. These events demonstrated the competition between source strengths of precursor vapors from anthropogenic activities and primary particles acting as condensation sink restricting NPF. This study highlighted that urban pollution mitigation viii policies must consider ultrafine particles emanating from the secondary aerosol formation process from traffic emissions. Since the air pollution and noise generated from fireworks are related to air quality and human health, the regulatory bodies had implemented the eco-friendly "Green Crackers" in megacity Delhi, India, to celebrate Diwali 2019 with the permission of a specific time slot (8:00 PM to 10:00 PM). The present study was conducted on a residential, educational institute campus to evaluate the particle number size distribution (PNSD) of green cracker emissions. During the Diwali event period, the high peak of particle number concentration (PNC) reached 1.7 x 105 # cm-3 with a geometric mean diameter (GMD) of ~44 nm. The average PNC increment on Diwali day was 138 % and 97 % compared to pre (26th October 2019) and post (28th October 2019) Diwali period, respectively, including 468 %, 142 %, 65 %, 75 % on pre-Diwali and 485 %, 110 %, 32 %, 26 % on post-Diwali 2019 period in terms of Nucleation mode (10 nm < Dp < 20 nm), Small Aitken mode (20 nm < Dp < 50 nm), Large Aitken mode (50 nm < Dp < 100 nm), and Accumulation mode (100 nm < Dp < 1000 nm), respectively. Unlike traditional firework emissions, green crackers had a high UFP/Ntotal ratio of 0.72, including Nucleation mode-0.35, Aitken mode-0.30, and Accumulation mode 0.35, distinguishing it from other pre-and post-Diwali particle number size distribution-dN/dlogDp curves. These observations indicate that green crackers emit more particles with smaller diameters than traditional crackers. Recommendations for using green crackers for Diwali celebrations may be an option if lower size-diameter particle emission could be controlled by changing the material composition of the green cracker. More research studies need to be conducted to assess atmospheric emissions of green crackers and their health impacts to evaluate whether they are better or worse than traditional crackers. Research studies have proved that smaller-sized particulate matter is more dangerous to human health when its particle number concentration is high. In the urban transport microenvironment, vehicular emission is a significant source of smaller size particulate matter. The Odd-Even scheme was implemented in Delhi in 2019 on vehicle movement to curb air pollution during the winter season. This study selected three locations, namely Najafgarh, Pitampura, and Panchkuian road, to evaluate the Odd-Even scheme 2019. This study revealed a reduction of 24 to 26 % in PM1 particle number concentration along ix with their particle number size distribution as QuasiUFP (24 to 25.4%), sub-fine (26 to 42.7%) and fine (16.5 to 24.1%) in particle number concentrations. This study also covers the coarse particle size, with the lowest reduction (7 to 10%) at all the selected locations. Car & taxi, on which Odd-Even scheme was effective, has shown a reduction of 12.6 to 26.4%.
