The fog banks which have formed and the high concentration of smog are visible in this image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites on 5 October 2022.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The first fog or low clouds of the month are persisting over the Po Valley, a sign of the arrival of the autumn season. In fact, the current high atmospheric pressure causes a stagnation of air masses, the accumulation of humidity and smog in the lower layers of the atmosphere and consequently a deterioration of local air quality. The fog banks which have formed and the high concentration of smog are visible in this image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites on 5 October 2022. Complementing Copernicus satellite data, the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) monitors and forecasts air quality on a global scale by assessing and forecasting the concentration of air pollutants, as well as their transport and dispersion.
