Air at the Novi Sad Liman station
Novi Sad, Serbia
Network: Agency for Environmental Protection · Station code: RS1008A
This year, up to yesterday (October 7)
72 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: 40 days above the limit, the target value allows 25 as a three-year average.
Worst day: July 17, 2026, O₃ 170 µg/m³ as a daily average, 1.4 times the limit.
Daily average for 278 of 280 days · data for 2026 not yet finally verified · Yardstick: EU limits (Directive 2008/50/EC)

The monitoring networks have not yet finally verified this year’s data. The EEA publishes verified values once a year.

There is no allowed number for the warning and alert thresholds: every such hour or day is in red.

Compared with the new EU rules and the WHO recommendation
This is not the yardstick for the verdict above, only a comparison. From 2030 the EU tightens its limits (Directive (EU) 2024/2881), and since 2021 the World Health Organization has recommended even lower values.
- EU from 2030: daily 50 µg/m³, 18 days allowed. In 2023 there were 0 such days.
- WHO 2021: daily 25 µg/m³, at most three to four days a year. In 2023 there were 57 such days.
- EU from 2030: annual average 20 µg/m³. Average in 2023: 18 µg/m³.
- WHO 2021: annual average 10 µg/m³. Average in 2023: 18 µg/m³.

Compared with the new EU rules and the WHO recommendation
This is not the yardstick for the verdict above, only a comparison. From 2030 the EU tightens its limits (Directive (EU) 2024/2881), and since 2021 the World Health Organization has recommended even lower values.
- EU from 2030: daily 50 µg/m³, 18 days allowed. In 2023 there were 0 such days.
- WHO 2021: daily 40 µg/m³, at most three to four days a year. In 2023 there were 0 such days.
- EU from 2030: annual average 20 µg/m³. Average in 2023: 8 µg/m³.

Calculated from the hourly values the EEA publishes. If late values arrive afterwards, an outage gets shorter or disappears.
Where the data comes from
Measured by Agency for Environmental Protection. 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.
