When is air pollution at its worst in Caminito del Rey?
Does air quality in Caminito del Rey vary by season? Air quality is typically at its weakest in December and January, when cold, calm high-pressure spells trap traffic exhaust and wood-smoke close to the ground instead of letting it disperse. Conditions generally start to recover in spring, as increasing wind and rainfall break up the stagnant air masses typical of winter. High summer temperatures and strong sun exposure drive ozone levels up, occasionally combined with smoke from nearby wildfires during dry spells. Early autumn can still bring warm, stagnant spells before the season's returning rain and wind begin clearing the air. Southern Spain's high summer temperatures, combined with periodic dust blown in from North Africa, tend to sharpen the seasonal contrasts here.
Are air quality levels in Caminito del Rey 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.
