When is air pollution at its worst in Ammanford?
Seasons make a real difference to air quality in Ammanford, more than most people realise. In summer, ozone can build up on sunny afternoons, though windier, warmer weather usually helps clear traffic-related pollution faster than in winter. Winter tends to be worst, with wood burning, home heating, and still, cold air trapping traffic fumes from the M4 closer to ground level. Spring and autumn don't usually cause much concern, sitting comfortably between winter's peak and summer's ozone spikes.
Are air quality levels in Ammanford 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.
