| The average remained yesterday Saturday at 50 micrograms per cubic meter of air | According to the framework protocol for action, today, Sunday, August 30, preventive level 1 for suspended particles remains activated in the La Aljorra area, after the average of measurements from yesterday Saturday at the station that covers the area.
Mar Menor coastline outside 50 micrograms per cubic meter of air, which implies, according to RD 102/2011, exceeding the daily limit value in another of the 35 times allowed per calendar year.This new episode coincides with the prediction of the intrusion of air masses of African origin over the Iberian Peninsula.The models consulted foresee the continuation of the event of intrusion of air masses of African origin over the Iberian Peninsula for August 29, 30 and 31, 2020.The NMMB / BSC-Dust model foresees conditions in areas of the southeast of the Peninsula that, as they are not consistent with the rest of the models, could be related to local resuspension processes.The SKIRON model predicts that concentrations of mineral dust in the range 10-50 µg / m3 can be recorded for the southeast of the Peninsula during the three days.Furthermore, according to the SKIRON model, dry dust deposition events could also occur over the south, especially the southeast, during the three days.Wet dust deposition events are also expected in the southeast of the peninsula during the second half of August 30 and the first half of August 31.The action protocol in these cases recommends reducing emissions to the atmosphere, limiting the use of vehicles as much as possible and avoiding the burning of stubble, among other measures.
