Songzi's air quality reflects the Hubei western Yangtze River valley position adjacent to the Three Gorges corridor, with vehicle traffic and the agricultural and manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. The Yangtze gorge corridor provides limited ventilation, while winter inversions create seasonal concentration and Songzi generally maintains moderate Hubei western Yangtze corridor readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Songzi?
The biggest local contributors to pollution in Songzi are traffic on the surrounding roads, textile and manufacturing operations, together with farming and agricultural processing, particularly once temperature inversions set in over the valley. The surrounding valley terrain holds pollutants near the surface rather than letting them disperse. This is most pronounced in winter, when inversions are more frequent.
Are air quality levels in Songzi 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.
