Autorenportrait

Dr. Supriya Tiwari is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany at Banaras Hindu University, India. Her research focuses on the formation of ozone and its effects on plant productivity in India. Her evaluations of ozone crop injury and ozone induced yield reductions have made a significant contribution in the planning of sustainable agriculture strategies, cultivation of ozone resistant species, and the use of nutrient amendments and carbon dioxide fertilization. Dr. Madhoolika Agrawal is a Professor in the Department of Botany at Banaras Hindu University, India. Her areas of specialization include trace metal contamination in the food chain due to urbanization, crop yield losses due to air pollutants, and monitoring of surface ozone in suburban and rural parts of north India.
