When is air pollution at its worst in Almendralejo?

How do the seasons affect air quality in Almendralejo? The winter months typically bring the weakest air quality of the year, as calm anticyclonic conditions trap vehicle and heating pollution near the surface. Conditions generally start to recover in spring, as increasing wind and rainfall break up the stagnant air masses typical of winter. Summer's combination of intense sun and high temperatures makes ozone the main concern, occasionally compounded by wildfire smoke during dry, windy spells. Air quality usually improves through autumn, as returning rains and cooling temperatures wash out summer's ozone and dust build-up. The plateau's continental climate, with cold winters and hot, dry summers, tends to produce more pronounced seasonal differences here.

Are air quality levels in Almendralejo 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.
