Cava de' Tirreni's air quality reflects the Metelliano river valley in the Campanian Apennines at 195 metres above Salerno, with vehicle traffic on the A3 motorway and surrounding manufacturing and urban operations contributing local sources. The surrounding Lattari and Picentini mountain massifs create significant topographic enclosure, while the Tyrrhenian sea breezes provide ventilation on westerly days and the Campanian regional background influences the broader valley air quality under prolonged anticyclonic conditions throughout the year.
