Yuci's air quality reflects the Shanxi central Fen River valley position at 780 metres at the Taihang Mountain base, with vehicle traffic and coal mining, manufacturing, and heating corridor generating elevated PM2.5. The valley's topographic enclosure concentrates coal industrial and heating emissions under frequent winter inversions and Yuci generally maintains moderate to elevated Shanxi industrial corridor readings throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Yuci right now?

On 16 July 2026, overall air quality in Yuci is medium. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 43.3/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 AM (NO2: 43.3/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Yuci?

On 17 July 2026, air quality conditions in Yuci will be worse than today, with AQI forecast at poor at 61.8/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 61.8/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Yuci?

Air quality in Yuci tends to be worse when vehicle traffic, quarrying activity, as well as manufacturing activity build up and the surrounding valley traps air close to the ground. The surrounding valley terrain holds pollutants near the surface rather than letting them disperse. Dust carried on these winds adds substantially to particulate levels.

Are air quality levels in Yuci 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.
