Local Environmental Conditions
Around the center of Mazarrón, a mix of built-up land and open space means traffic is an important, but not overwhelming, local pollution source. Sea breezes along the coast usually help ventilate the area. In this dry landscape, strong winds readily lift dust and sand into the air. Air arriving from elsewhere in the region adds to what is produced locally.
From May to October, strong sunshine and temperatures around 28°C drive ozone formation, with levels peaking in the afternoon. In contrast, air near roads is often at its worst from December to February, when nights cool to around 12°C and the air turns still. Wildfire smoke is most likely from June to November, sometimes turning the sky hazy for days.

When is air pollution at its worst in Mazarrón?
From May to October, strong sunshine and temperatures around 28°C drive ozone formation, with levels peaking in the afternoon. In contrast, air near roads is often at its worst from December to February, when nights cool to around 12°C and the air turns still. Wildfire smoke is most likely from June to November, sometimes turning the sky hazy for days.
Are air quality levels in Mazarrón 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.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 air quality scores represent risk levels, not direct air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Air Quality
| Good | 0-20 | Low air quality risk. Air quality is expected to be good, with low levels of pollution. |
| Fair | 20-40 | Generally low air quality risk. Air quality is expected to be acceptable, with some pollution present. |
| Moderate | 40-60 | Moderate air quality risk. Air pollution is elevated and air quality may be less favorable. |
| Poor | 60-80 | High air quality risk. Air pollution is high and air quality is expected to be poor. |
| Very Poor | 80-100 | Very high air quality risk. Air pollution is very high and air quality is expected to be very poor. |
