Top Triggers

  • PM2.5
  • 78.8 ug/m3

    The pollutant PM2.5 value is 78.8 micrograms per cubic meter. Main sources are fuel burning processes in industry, transportation and indoor heating Particules enter the lungs and cause local and systemic inflammation in the resipratory system & heart, thus cause cardiovascular and respiratory diseases such as asthma and bronchitis

  • PM10
  • 131 ug/m3

    The pollutant PM10 value is 131 micrograms per cubic meter. Main sources are natural dust, smoke and pollen Cause local and systemic inflammation in the respiratory system & heart Cause cardiovascular and respiratory diseases such as asthma and bronchitis

  • O₃
  • 0.36 ppb

    The pollutant O₃ value is 0.36 parts per billion. Ozone is created in a chemical reaction between atmospheric oxygen, nitrogen oxides, organic compounds and sunlight Irritate the airways causing coughing, a burning sensation, wheezing and shortness of breath Children, people with respiratory or lung and heart diseases, elderly and those who exercise outdoors are particularly vulnerable to ozone exposure

  • NO₂
  • 7.37 ppb

    The pollutant NO₂ value is 7.37 parts per billion. Main sources are fuel burning processes in industry and transportation Cause increased bronchial reactivity in patients with asthma, lung function decline in patients with COPD Cause increased risk of respiratory infections, especially in young children

  • SO₂
  • 5.17 ppb

    The pollutant SO₂ value is 5.17 parts per billion. Main sources are burning processes of sulfur-containing fuel in industry and electricity generation Cause irritation to the respiratory tract, coughing Generates an inflammatory reaction that may worsen the condition of patients with asthma and patients with pneumonia and bronchitis

  • CO
  • 844 ppb

    The pollutant CO value is 844 parts per billion. CO is a product of incomplete combustion in car engines and industry Cause dizziness, nausea and headaches Pregnant women, populations with diseases that inhibit regular oxygen supply in the body (such as chronic bronchitis or anemia) and the elderly are especially susceptible
