İzmir's air quality benefits from its exceptional Aegean Sea coastal position in the İzmir Bay, with consistent Aegean and Mediterranean westerlies providing reliable maritime ventilation. Vehicle traffic on the E87 and surrounding petrochemical, manufacturing, and port operations contribute local sources, while the bay's open Aegean geometry and the Izmir metropolitan area's relatively lower industrial intensity compared to Istanbul generally maintain İzmir among Turkey's more moderately ventilated major coastal cities throughout most of the year.
