At Stade Marcel-Deflandre, port traffic and light industry is the main local source affecting air quality, though Atlantic westerlies ventilate the region regularly, which usually keeps pollution from building up. Cold winter inversions can trap emissions inland, while summer coastal breezes keep the coastline cleaner than areas further inland, barring the odd heatwave ozone spike.

When is air pollution at its worst in Stade Marcel-Deflandre?

At Stade Marcel-Deflandre, the combination of oak and plane pollen and port traffic and light industry is what most affects sensitive visitors, typically in spring; Atlantic westerlies ventilate the region regularly.

Are air quality levels in Stade Marcel-Deflandre 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.
