Sitting on the Strait of Messina facing Sicily, Reggio Calabria sees vehicle traffic on the coastal SS106 and the port/ferry terminal as the dominant local influence on air quality, while the surrounding Calabria terrain affects how pollutants disperse. Calm, still conditions tend to let levels build here more than in breezier weather, and the local topography around Reggio Calabria can trap emissions for longer stretches during stable atmospheric periods.
