When is air pollution at its worst in Vilagarcía de Arousa?
How does air quality change throughout the year in Vilagarcía de Arousa? Winter is generally the most challenging season, since low wind speeds and temperature inversions prevent traffic and wood-smoke pollution from dispersing. Spring usually brings an improvement as more frequent rain and stronger winds help clear the air and wash out pollutants that built up over winter. Summer can bring periodic wildfire smoke on top of the usual ozone build-up from intense heat and sunshine. Air quality usually improves through autumn, as returning rains and cooling temperatures wash out summer's ozone and dust build-up. Being close to the Atlantic, this area benefits from regular rainfall and wind that help keep pollution from building up for long.
Are air quality levels in Vilagarcía de Arousa 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.
