Puning's air quality reflects the Guangdong eastern coastal Jianjiang River valley position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the garment manufacturing, plastics, and agricultural corridor contributing local sources. Consistent South China Sea trade winds provide maritime ventilation, while the coastal proximity generally maintains moderate Guangdong eastern corridor readings and the rapidly expanding urban development drives increasing vehicle emissions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Puning?

Pollution in Puning typically rises when traffic on the surrounding roads, light manufacturing, together with agricultural burning combine, especially once onshore breezes fall calm. Onshore breezes usually help clear the air, but pollution can build up when winds are light. This natural ventilation is one reason coastal areas often see better readings than inland cities.

Are air quality levels in Puning 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.
