When is air pollution at its worst in Guldheden?

What is the yearly air quality pattern like in Guldheden? Cold, still winter days are when pollutant levels are most likely to climb, mainly from heating and traffic rather than any single major source. By spring, more frequent fronts and wind usually disperse pollutants faster, even as tree pollen becomes the bigger seasonal concern. Air quality is typically strongest in summer, helped by more wind and sunshine, though still days can occasionally push up ozone levels. The transition into autumn typically brings a slow return of the wood-smoke and calm-air conditions that peak in winter. The comparatively mild southern Swedish climate means these seasonal swings are usually less pronounced than further north.

Are air quality levels in Guldheden 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.
