Rosendal is the main village in Kvinnherad municipality on the Hardangerfjord Rosendalsfjord branch, with very modest vehicle traffic and the agricultural and baronial estate tourism corridor contributing minimal sources. Consistent Hardangerfjord breezes provide natural ventilation and the area generally maintains excellent to good conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Rosendal?

Rosendal residents are most likely to notice reduced air quality on the calmest, coldest days of winter, when the surrounding mountains trap still air close to the valley floor. Frequent wind and rain along this coast generally prevent emissions from building up for long. Otherwise, Rosendal maintains good air quality across most of the calendar.

Are air quality levels in Rosendal 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.

Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?

Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.

During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
