Bodø kommune's air quality benefits from its exceptional Arctic coastal position on the Saltfjord adjacent to the Lofoten Islands approach, with consistent Norwegian Sea and Arctic maritime breezes providing outstanding natural ventilation. Vehicle traffic and the Bodø airport operations and services corridor contribute local sources, while the outstanding Arctic coastal exposure and the midnight sun climate generally maintain Bodø at good to moderate conditions for a major Norwegian Arctic city throughout most of the year.
