Suncheon's air quality benefits from its exceptional South Sea and Suncheon Bay national garden position in Jeonnam, with consistent South Sea maritime breezes providing reliable ventilation. Vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the agricultural, services, and ecological tourism corridor contribute modest local sources, while the outstanding Suncheon Bay wetland reserve and the coastal position generally maintain Suncheon among South Korea's more pleasantly ventilated southwestern coastal cities throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Nagaoka?

Nagaoka usually sees its poorest air quality when traffic emissions, crop farming, along with seasonal tourism traffic coincide with periods when onshore breezes fall calm. Sea breezes typically keep conditions in check, except during still weather. Areas further inland without this ventilation tend to fare worse.

Are air quality levels in Nagaoka based on measurements or forecasts?

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
