Emden's air quality reflects the North Sea Ems estuary position in Lower Saxony, with the Nordsee-Werke shipbuilding and vehicle traffic on the B70 and the surrounding VW Emden manufacturing plant generating industrial and maritime emissions. The powerful North Sea westerlies provide consistent maritime ventilation, while the open Ems estuary and the flat East Frisian coast generally maintain good dispersal and Emden's manufacturing character produces moderate industrial emission levels throughout the year.
