Nanning's air quality benefits from the Guangxi subtropical capital's Yong River valley at 75 metres, with consistent South China Sea monsoon and southerly winds providing reliable seasonal ventilation. Vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the sugar, aluminum, and manufacturing corridor contribute local sources, while the subtropical monsoon's frequent summer convective rain provides effective atmospheric cleansing and Nanning generally maintains moderate South Chinese subtropical provincial capital readings throughout most of the year.

Are air quality levels in Nanning 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.
