Short summary
This study highlights the use of numerical tools at very high resolution to support the Air Quality monitoring strategy in the Himalayan valley which suffer from Air Pollution. For the first time ever, a high resolution simulation is performed in Bhutan showing the high PM2.5 concentrations within the valleys and potential contaminations up to the glaciers enhancing climate related risks.
