Sel kommune's air quality benefits from its Gudbrandsdalen valley position at the Otta River junction adjacent to the Peer Gynt plateau, with very modest vehicle traffic and the agricultural and services corridor contributing minimal local sources. Consistent valley breezes provide background ventilation and Sel generally maintains good to excellent conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Sel kommune?
Air in Sel kommune is generally at its worst during short stretches of calm winter weather, when the more continental climate produces sharp temperature inversions that trap wood-smoke overnight. This inland district generally enjoys decent air quality for most of the year. The rest of the year, residents can expect generally clean air in Sel kommune.
Are air quality levels in Sel kommune 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.
