Buenos Aires' air quality is shaped by vehicle traffic across its vast grid and prevailing Pampas winds that typically flush the city from the southwest. The Río de la Plata waterfront provides natural ventilation, though winter temperature inversions can trap emissions across the low-lying metropolitan area.
