When is air pollution at its worst in Torre de Hércules?
Does air quality in Torre de Hércules vary by season? Winter mornings are frequently the year's most polluted, as fog and calm conditions trap traffic fumes and smoke from wood stoves close to the ground. Spring often marks a turning point, with increasing storminess and rainfall helping to clear accumulated exhaust and smoke from the air. The heat of summer drives up ozone formation, and dry conditions occasionally bring smoke from regional wildfires into the mix. Early autumn can still bring warm, stagnant spells before the season's returning rain and wind begin clearing the air. Being close to the Atlantic, this area benefits from regular rainfall and wind that help keep pollution from building up for long.
Are air quality levels in Torre de Hércules 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.
