Jodhpur's air quality reflects the flat Rajasthan Thar Desert margin at 231 metres, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the marble quarrying, handicrafts, and tourism corridor contributing local sources. Windblown Thar Desert dust generates severe PM10 during desert dust storm events, while the dry arid climate concentrates vehicle and dust emissions and Jodhpur's desert gateway character creates a distinctive combination of quarrying dust and desert aerosols throughout most of the year.
