In Meschede, air quality is shaped by the flat Westphalian plain, with traffic on nearby federal roads and local streets and nearby farming and food-processing activity as the main local sources. Open farmland surroundings generally allow pollutants to disperse readily, while the broader Rhine-Ruhr industrial background and Atlantic westerlies from the North Sea shape regional conditions throughout the year.
