How do the seasons affect air quality in Torre del Mar? Air quality is typically at its weakest in December and January, when cold, calm high-pressure spells trap traffic exhaust and wood-smoke close to the ground instead of letting it disperse. Conditions generally start to recover in spring, as increasing wind and rainfall break up the stagnant air masses typical of winter. During summer, strong sunlight and high temperatures accelerate ozone formation, occasionally offsetting the drop in traffic and heating-related emissions. Autumn is typically a recovery period, with increasing rainfall and cooler air gradually reducing both ozone and traffic-related pollution. The south's long, hot summers and occasional calima dust events from across the Strait tend to intensify the usual seasonal swings.

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.
