Drobeta-Turnu Severin's air quality reflects the Iron Gates Danube gorge position at the Romania-Serbia border, with vehicle traffic on the E70 and surrounding industrial and port operations contributing local sources. Winter residential wood and coal burning generates elevated PM2.5, while the Danube gorge's topographic enclosure between the Carpathian and Balkan mountain ranges creates concentration under calm conditions and the river corridor provides the primary ventilation pathway.
