Mollet's air quality reflects the Besòs river valley in the Barcelona Vallès industrial corridor, with vehicle traffic on the AP-7 motorway and the surrounding manufacturing and logistics industry contributing elevated NOₓ and industrial PM2.5. The Collserola ridge and the Vallès pre-litoral create partial topographic enclosure, while the Barcelona Bay sea breeze provides afternoon ventilation and the industrial valley character keeps readings elevated above suburban Barcelona residential averages throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Mollet?

What time of year has the cleanest air in Mollet? Winter tends to bring the year's weakest readings, as stagnant, cold air lets heating smoke and vehicle emissions build up rather than clear away. As spring progresses, wetter and windier conditions generally help flush out the traffic and heating pollution that built up over winter. Summer brings its own challenge in the form of ground-level ozone, which forms readily under strong sunshine and high temperatures, particularly during heatwaves. Autumn generally marks the shift back toward calmer, cleaner conditions as temperatures drop and rainfall becomes more regular. The mild, breezy Mediterranean climate generally supports good dispersal, though summer crowds and Saharan dust intrusions can occasionally push levels higher.

Are air quality levels in Mollet 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.
