Kunp'o's air quality reflects the flat Gyeonggi-do southwestern Seoul metropolitan corridor position adjacent to Anyang, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the manufacturing, residential, and commercial character contributing local sources. Seasonal Chinese dust transport elevates PM10 during spring yellow dust episodes, while the broader Seoul metropolitan regional background maintains moderate to elevated South Korean metropolitan southwestern suburban readings throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Kunp’o?
The biggest local contributors to pollution in Kunp’o are traffic emissions, textile and manufacturing operations, together with fishing fleet activity, particularly once windblown dust events occur. Strong seasonal winds can lift dust from the surrounding dry terrain and push particulate levels sharply higher. This is most noticeable during spring and autumn wind events.
Are air quality levels in Kunp’o 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.
