      This article reports detection and mapping of water (hydroxyl stretch in the infrared) on the surface of Moon. India played a key role in the mission and authors include researchers from PRL and ISRO. Implications for discovery of water are endless. Importance of water for life on a planetary body or development of geomorphic features/weathering, fueling plate tectonics (as in planet Earth) are just a few implications for such a discovery.

      Authors claim to have identified the long sought physical mechanism linking Atlantic climate and long term variations in monsoon rainfall – a topic that has always been of interest to atmospheric scientists.

      The power plants are the key sources of air pollutants and make significant contribution to the formation of dense fog, haze and smog during the winter season.
