When is air pollution at its worst in Frigiliana?

What time of year has the cleanest air in Frigiliana? January is frequently the most difficult month, with cold stagnant air allowing wood-smoke and exhaust to build up instead of clearing. As spring progresses, wetter and windier conditions generally help flush out the traffic and heating pollution that built up over winter. Summer heat and intense sunlight drive photochemical ozone production, which can push afternoon air quality readings higher despite reduced winter-style pollution sources. Air quality usually improves through autumn, as returning rains and cooling temperatures wash out summer's ozone and dust build-up. Southern Spain's intense summer heat and periodic Saharan dust intrusions add extra pressure on top of the usual seasonal pattern.

Are air quality levels in Frigiliana 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.
