When is air pollution at its worst in Örnsköldsvik?
Does air quality in Örnsköldsvik vary by season? The year's lowest points for air quality usually fall in midwinter, when calm and cold conditions allow pollutants to linger near ground level. From spring onward, increasing wind and precipitation generally break up the stagnant conditions that caused winter dips. Summer typically brings the calmest air quality picture, punctuated only rarely by ozone build-up during still, hot weather. Autumn generally marks the year's decline back toward winter conditions, driven mainly by the return of wood-burning and stiller air. Given the longer, colder northern winter, this seasonal swing tends to be more pronounced and longer-lasting than further south.
Are air quality levels in Örnsköldsvik 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.
