Bordeaux's air quality benefits from consistent Atlantic westerlies and the Gironde estuary providing natural ventilation, with generally moderate readings for a major French city. Vehicle traffic on the ring road is the primary local source, while the surrounding Landes pine forest to the south contributes natural terpene emissions that interact with vehicle NOₓ to form secondary organic aerosols.
