Lofoten Links air quality benefits from its exceptional Norwegian Arctic Gimsøy archipelago position in the Lofoten Islands, with powerful North Atlantic and Norwegian Sea westerlies providing outstanding maritime ventilation among the dramatic Lofoten peaks. Vehicle traffic contributes very modest local sources, while the extraordinary North Atlantic exposure and the surrounding Lofoten Wall mountain archipelago's channelling of maritime winds generally maintain excellent to good conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Lofoten Links – Lofoten Links Course?
Anyone golfing at Lofoten Links – Lofoten Links Course can expect the most noticeable effect during the birch, alder, and pine pollen peak, or on calm, warm days when local emissions accumulate; regional road traffic is a minor local source. The cool Norwegian climate limits the pollen season to a short, sharp birch peak, with essentially no ragweed. The short May birch peak is the single biggest factor for pollen-sensitive players to keep in mind.
Are air quality levels in Lofoten Links – Lofoten Links Course 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.
