Air at the Pula Fižela station

Pula, Croatia

Network: Državna mreža za trajno praćenje kvalitete zraka · Station code: HR0034A

This year, up to yesterday (October 7)

77 days

with an 8-hour average of ozone (O₃) above the target value of 120 µg/m³.

The target value allows 25 such days a year, averaged over three years.

In 2025: 41 days above the limit, the target value allows 25 as a three-year average.

Worst day: August 1, 2026, O₃ 158 µg/m³ as a daily average, 1.3 times the limit.

How the air is changing

Over the last seven days there was more NO₂ and O₃ in the air than the week before.

  • NO₂: average 23.2 µg/m³, week before 20.9 µg/m³
  • O₃: average 77.3 µg/m³, week before 67 µg/m³

Last month there was more NO₂ and less O₃ in the air than the month before.

  • NO₂: average 15.5 µg/m³, month before 14.1 µg/m³
  • O₃: average 71.5 µg/m³, month before 89.4 µg/m³

Where the data comes from

Measured by Državna mreža za trajno praćenje kvalitete zraka. We take the values from the European Environment Agency (EEA) under the CC BY 4.0 licence.

Values marked provisional have not been fully checked by the network yet. The EEA publishes verified data for the previous year once a year, usually by the end of September.

An hourly value is the average of one hour. We show the end of the hour: the value to 18:00 was measured from 17:00 to 18:00.

A day runs from midnight to midnight local time.

We only show an average when at least three out of four hours in the period have a reading. The EU air quality directive requires this for daily averages, and we apply the same rule to longer periods. We compare an annual average with the EU limit only once 90 % of hours are measured, as the directive requires. For 12 months and for a year we ask for more: if less than 90 % of hours are measured, every full calendar month needs readings for at least half of its hours. Otherwise a whole season could be missing from the average, such as summer, when ozone is highest.

We do not call a difference of up to 10 % a change, nor one of up to 1 µg/m³ at low levels, because weather and measurement uncertainty alone cause differences that size.

When a station sends no reading, the EEA sometimes fills the hour with a model estimate. We draw those hours dashed and leave them out of every average.

The EU limits come from Directive 2008/50/EC. Here they serve as a yardstick for comparison. When more than a tenth of the days or hours are missing, the number of exceedances can only be higher, so we write “at least” in front of it.
