Yingtan's air quality reflects the Jiangxi northeastern Xin River valley's copper smelting position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the Jiangxi Copper Corporation — China's largest copper producer — operations generating elevated heavy metal PM2.5 and SO₂. The surrounding Wuyi and Huaiyu mountain ranges create topographic variation, while the copper smelting operations' distinctive heavy metal particulate represents Yingtan's most industrially significant air quality contribution and winter valley inversions create seasonal concentration throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Yingtan?
The biggest local contributor to pollution in Yingtan is traffic on the surrounding roads, particularly once temperature inversions set in over the valley. The bowl-like terrain here limits how quickly pollutants can escape. These wind events can carry dust in from the surrounding arid landscape.
Are air quality levels in Yingtan 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.
