Songjiang's air quality reflects Shanghai's southwestern suburban corridor at the Huangpu River headwaters, with vehicle traffic on the G60 expressway and the surrounding manufacturing, electronics, and logistics corridor contributing local sources. East China Sea breezes provide limited maritime ventilation, while winter anticyclonic inversions concentrate industrial and heating emissions and Songjiang generally tracks at moderate to elevated Shanghai metropolitan southwestern corridor readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Songjiang?

Songjiang usually sees its poorest air quality when traffic on the surrounding roads together with manufacturing activity coincide with periods when dry, windy weather picks up. Strong seasonal winds can lift dust from the surrounding dry terrain and push particulate levels sharply higher. Onshore breezes usually help clear the air, but pollution can build up when winds are light.

Are air quality levels in Songjiang 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.
