Kharkiv's air quality reflects the flat Ukrainian Kharkiv River plain at 112 metres, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the manufacturing, engineering, and educational corridor contributing local sources. Winter residential wood and gas heating generates seasonal PM2.5 elevation, while the flat Ukrainian plain allows reasonable dispersal on Atlantic westerly days and the ongoing conflict's infrastructure damage has created additional uncontrolled emission sources in surrounding areas throughout the year.
