Velika Gorica's air quality reflects Zagreb's southern suburban metropolitan corridor adjacent to Zagreb Airport, with aviation and vehicle emissions generating elevated NOₓ and ultrafine particles in the flight path alongside vehicle traffic on the A11 motorway. The flat Sava river plain provides reasonable dispersal, while the airport's concentrated passenger and cargo operations make Velika Gorica one of Croatia's more aviation-influenced urban municipalities throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Velika Gorica?
Residents in Velika Gorica are most likely to spot reduced air quality when metropolitan green spaces oak and poplar pollen peaks, or due to aviation and vehicle emissions; background levels usually settle back down once the season changes.
Are air quality levels in Velika Gorica 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.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
