Baku's air quality reflects the Abşeron Peninsula's flat Caspian Sea coastal position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the extraordinary oil and gas extraction and refining legacy — Baku being the original oil capital — generating elevated SO₂, benzene, and industrial PM2.5. The Caspian Sea breezes provide coastal ventilation, while the petroleum industry's pervasive infrastructure and the Sumqayıt industrial corridor's regional background maintain Baku among the Caucasus region's more distinctively petroleum-defined major urban environments throughout the year.
