The Dunajec and Czarny Dunajec rivers location of Nowy Targ plays the biggest role in local air quality, where the Podhale gateway market town beneath the Tatras is the main local emissions source, compounded by traffic on the surrounding expressway network. The surrounding Małopolskie landscape generally allows reasonable dispersal on most days, though winter inversions can trap emissions locally.

When is air pollution at its worst in Nowy Targ?

Air quality dips in Nowy Targ mostly track when spruce and pine pollen peaks and during stretches of the Podhale gateway market town beneath the Tatras; the picture usually improves again once the season turns and the local weather pattern changes for good.

Are air quality levels in Nowy Targ 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.
