Balance sheet 2024
Automatically saved draft
The past year saw similarly low levels of particulate matter as in 2023. The annual average values for particles smaller than ten millionths of a meter have halved since 2000.
Outliers included three days in March. On these days, Saharan dust drove the concentration of particulate matter above the daily limit. Elevated particulate matter levels were also measured on June 21 due to midsummer bonfires in Lungau.
However, 25 such exceedances per year are "permitted". The annual average value at the most polluted measuring point (Salzburg Rudolfsplatz) was 15 micrograms per cubic meter in 2024, well below the limit value of 40.
The highest daily average after the New Year's Eve fireworks was measured in Tamsweg on New Year's Day at 42 micrograms per cubic meter.
