Szolnok's air quality reflects the flat Great Hungarian Plain position on the Tisza river, with vehicle traffic on the M4 motorway and surrounding food processing and manufacturing industry contributing local sources. Winter residential heating and temperature inversions on the open Alföld create seasonal PM2.5 challenges, while the flat Pannonian plain generally allows reasonable dispersal on most days and the Tisza river corridor provides limited ventilation on prevailing southerly and northerly wind days.
