Air Quality Index (AQI) Analysis Report

Yearly AQI Trends


 2020 recorded the highest average AQI of 4.58, followed by 2021 with 3.39, 2023
with 3.49, and 2022 with 3.32.
 There is a general trend indicating a gradual improvement in air quality over these
years, though AQI levels still vary significantly across months and cities.
Monthly AQI Trends
 Winter months (December, January, and February) exhibit higher average AQI
levels, with December at 4.51 and January at 4.34.
 Monsoon months (June through August) show the lowest AQI, with values around
2.42 to 2.46, likely due to rain that can help reduce airborne pollutants.
 Post-monsoon months, such as October and November, see a rise in AQI, which could
be influenced by increased human activities and decreased atmospheric cleansing.
City-wise AQI Averages
 Cities with the highest AQI levels include Jorapokhar (4.68), Delhi (4.48), Patna
(4.44), Amritsar (4.40), and Lucknow (4.37).
 The cities with the lowest AQI include Mumbai (2.39), Thiruvananthapuram
(2.46), and Coimbatore (2.66), indicating relatively better air quality.
 Major urban areas with dense populations and industrial activities, such as Delhi and
Patna, show consistently higher AQI, whereas cities with less industrial activity
exhibit better air quality.
Average Gas Concentrations
 Carbon Monoxide (CO): 551.63 μg/m³
 Nitric Oxide (NO): 0.031 μg/m³
 Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2): 12.02 μg/m³
 Ozone (O3): 45.76 μg/m³
 Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): 6.96 μg/m³
 Particulate Matter (PM2.5): 45.26 μg/m³, PM10: 56.37 μg/m³
 Ammonia (NH3): 6.18 μg/m³
CO levels are notably high, potentially contributing to elevated AQI in heavily populated
areas. Particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) also shows high concentrations, consistent with
AQI increases, especially in cities like Delhi and Patna.
