Air pollution levels in Lisbon show alarming increase over past five years.
The study looked at air pollution levels in Lisbon from 2014 to 2018 at two different stations. They found that pollutants like NO2 and PM were higher at the urban station influenced by car traffic, while O3 was higher at the background-influenced station. Pollution levels varied by season and day due to weather and human activities. Monitoring pollution over time helps identify high-risk areas and find ways to reduce emissions.
