Abeokuta's air quality reflects the flat southwestern Nigeria Ogun River granite inselberg position at 76 metres, with vehicle density, informal manufacturing, and charcoal burning generating elevated PM2.5. The tropical wet season provides periodic cleansing, while dry season Harmattan dust elevates PM10 and Abeokuta generally maintains moderate to elevated southwestern Nigerian state capital readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Abeokuta?
Air quality in Abeokuta tends to be worse when road traffic, textile and manufacturing operations, as well as charcoal and wood-burning build up and windblown dust events occur. Strong seasonal winds can lift dust from the surrounding dry terrain and push particulate levels sharply higher. Coal and wood used for winter heating add substantially to particulate levels.
Are air quality levels in Abeokuta 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.
