Anqing's air quality reflects the Yangtze River valley's flat Anhui southern plain position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the petrochemical, textile, and manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. The Yangtze River provides limited waterway ventilation, while winter anticyclonic inversions concentrate industrial and heating emissions and Anqing generally maintains moderate Anhui Yangtze corridor provincial readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Anqing?
In Anqing, traffic on the surrounding roads, heavy industrial and chemical processing, as well as light manufacturing are the main local sources, with conditions worsening when temperature inversions set in over the valley. The surrounding valley terrain holds pollutants near the surface rather than letting them disperse. Strong seasonal winds can lift dust from the surrounding dry terrain and push particulate levels sharply higher.
Are air quality levels in Anqing based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
