Ahmedabad combines industrial estates, heavy traffic, and arid climate. Dust from construction and surrounding drylands frequently elevates PM10.
Key Pollution Drivers
Industrial clusters in Naroda, Vatva, and Sanand corridors
Vehicular emissions along SG Highway and Ashram Road
Open plots and construction debris contributing to coarse dust
Seasonal Patterns
Late winter inversions trap smoke and particulate matter close to the Sabarmati
Hot summers see ozone spikes when sunlight reacts with nitrogen oxides
Pre-monsoon dust storms add abrupt surges in PM10
