The a northern residential district bordering university campuses location of Krowodrza plays the biggest role in local air quality, with vehicle traffic and local urban emissions and traffic on the surrounding expressway network standing out as the two main local drivers. The flat terrain nearby provides decent ventilation on most days, though calm winter spells raise local readings.

When is air pollution at its worst in Krowodrza?
Air quality dips in Krowodrza mostly track when oak and hornbeam pollen peaks or because of vehicle traffic and local urban emissions; cooler, breezier weather later in the year tends to bring things back down to more comfortable levels.
Are air quality levels in Krowodrza 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.
