Taizhou in Jiangsu reflects the flat Yangtze delta coastal plain, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the medical devices, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. East China Sea breezes provide limited maritime ventilation, while winter anticyclonic inversions concentrate industrial and heating emissions and Taizhou generally maintains moderate Jiangsu coastal provincial readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Taizhou?

Air quality in Taizhou tends to be worse when vehicle traffic together with light manufacturing build up and windblown dust events occur. Dust carried on these winds adds substantially to particulate levels. Sea breezes typically keep conditions in check, except during still weather.

Are air quality levels in Taizhou 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.
