Salerno's air quality reflects the Gulf of Salerno coastal position, with vehicle traffic on the A3 and port ferry operations contributing local sources. Tyrrhenian sea breezes generally provide maritime ventilation, while the surrounding Lattari and Picentini mountains create topographic enclosure that concentrates emissions under calm conditions in this Campanian port city.
