When is air pollution at its worst in Berwick-upon-Tweed?
In Berwick-upon-Tweed, pollution levels don't stay flat — winter and summer look pretty different. Come winter, NO₂ and PM2.5 usually creep up, as heating and calmer air let M3 traffic emissions linger rather than disperse. By summer, ozone tends to rise on bright days, while better ventilation generally keeps particulate and NO₂ levels lower than winter. For much of spring and autumn, things settle into a fairly unremarkable middle ground.
Are air quality levels in Berwick-upon-Tweed 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.
