India's Stubble Burning Decline and Air Quality Updates

TL;DR Summary
Scientists have observed that in 2025, stubble burning in northern India is occurring later in the day, primarily between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., compared to earlier years, which may influence air quality and pollution levels. This shift has been detected through satellite data, indicating changes in farmers' burning behavior, and contributes significantly to regional air pollution, especially in Delhi and surrounding areas.
