When is air pollution at its worst in Slottsstaden?

How do the seasons affect air quality in Slottsstaden? Winter is usually the toughest stretch, as temperature inversions during still, cold weather trap local wood-burning and vehicle emissions near street level. The changeable spring weather generally keeps pollutant levels lower than in winter, even as pollen becomes more relevant. The warmer months usually see the cleanest air of the year, aided by better ventilation and reduced wood-burning. By October and November, cooling air and calmer evenings start to mirror the patterns that intensify further in winter. Given the region's milder winters, the contrast between the seasons here tends to be gentler than in northern Sweden.

Are air quality levels in Slottsstaden 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.
