When is air pollution at its worst in Águilas?
What time of year has the cleanest air in Águilas? Winter is generally the most challenging season, since low wind speeds and temperature inversions prevent traffic and wood-smoke pollution from dispersing. Air quality usually improves through spring, helped by more frequent frontal systems that bring rain and stronger winds to disperse local emissions. The heat of summer drives up ozone formation, and dry conditions occasionally bring smoke from regional wildfires into the mix. As autumn progresses, cooler temperatures and more frequent rain tend to bring air quality back toward its yearly average. The mild, breezy Mediterranean climate generally supports good dispersal, though summer crowds and Saharan dust intrusions can occasionally push levels higher.
Are air quality levels in Águilas 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.
