Xingyi's air quality reflects the Guizhou plateau's Qianxinan karst highland at 1,378 metres, with vehicle traffic and the hydropower, coal, and agricultural corridor contributing local sources. The elevated karst plateau position aids dispersal on most days, while winter coal heating under karst valley inversions generates elevated PM2.5 and Xingyi generally maintains moderate Guizhou highland readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Xingyi?

Air quality in Xingyi tends to be worse when vehicle traffic along with crop farming build up and temperature inversions set in over the valley. Topographic enclosure in the valley lets pollution accumulate rather than clear out. Coal and wood used for winter heating add substantially to particulate levels.

Are air quality levels in Xingyi 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.
