Description:

In this atlas, we define the meteorological state which is favorable to an air pollution episode as an air stagnation event. The air stagnation event identifies areas where air may be trapped by poor ventilation due to persistent light or calm winds, and by the presence of inversions. When air stagnation persists in a region, pollution can accumulate resulting in poor air quality.
