Granollers' air quality reflects the Vallès Oriental industrial corridor northeast of Barcelona, with vehicle traffic on the C-17 and AP-7 motorways and the surrounding automotive, manufacturing, and logistics industry contributing elevated NOₓ and industrial PM2.5. The Montseny massif to the north and the Collserola ridge to the south create partial topographic enclosure, while the Barcelona metropolitan sea breeze provides afternoon ventilation and the industrial valley character keeps readings elevated throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Granollers?
What time of year has the cleanest air in Granollers? The winter months typically bring the weakest air quality of the year, as calm anticyclonic conditions trap vehicle and heating pollution near the surface. Spring often marks a turning point, with increasing storminess and rainfall helping to clear accumulated exhaust and smoke from the air. Summer can bring periodic wildfire smoke on top of the usual ozone build-up from intense heat and sunshine. Autumn generally marks the shift back toward calmer, cleaner conditions as temperatures drop and rainfall becomes more regular. Sea breezes along this stretch of coast generally support air quality, but summer holiday traffic and occasional calima dust events can interrupt that.
Are air quality levels in Granollers 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.
