Calella's dominant local factors are agricultural dust and occasional crop-residue burning. Levels rise in the drier months when fields and roads throw up more dust. Dry summer winds can carry dust over long distances from surrounding farmland.

When is air pollution at its worst in Calella?
What time of year has the cleanest air in Calella? Air quality often reaches its yearly low in the depths of winter, when still, cold air holds local emissions from traffic and heating close to ground level. As spring progresses, wetter and windier conditions generally help flush out the traffic and heating pollution that built up over winter. Summer readings are shaped mainly by ozone, which builds under strong sun and heat, sometimes worsened by drifting wildfire smoke. By late autumn, air quality is usually back to more moderate levels, though the first cold snaps can bring an early hint of winter's traffic and heating pollution. Coastal sea breezes here usually aid dispersal, but summer visitor traffic and periodic dust intrusions from North Africa can still cause spikes.
Are air quality levels in Calella 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.
