Winter stillness is the main driver of poor air quality at Töss, letting vehicle traffic and dense urban activity build up in the lake basin until the wind eventually returns. Things generally improve from spring onward, with summer's stronger winds keeping the air clear except for the occasional hot-weather ozone peak; autumn is typically calm and mild.

Are air quality levels in Töss 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.
