Lübeck in fine dust chaos: How dangerous is the air today?
The air quality in Lübeck is currently in focus after several measurements have arisen. On December 27, 2024, the following data was determined at the Moislinger-Allee measurement station in St. Lorenz-Süd for particles of the size PM10: The limit value for PM10 is 50 particles per cubic meter of air, which can be exceeded annually up to 35 times. The measurement methods include hourly means for nitrogen dioxide and ozone as well as an hourly sliding daily remedy for fine dust. According to information from ln-online.de, the data is also worrying because early deaths in the EU are estimated to be 240,000 annually by fine dust.
In addition, the measurement contains relevant limit values for air quality parameters. The classifications range from "very bad" to "very good" and include the values for nitrogen dioxide and ozone. For the "bad" category, for example, values of 101 to 200 μg/m³ for nitrogen dioxide and 51 to 100 μg/m³ are called for fine dust. Recommended measures in poor air quality include for sensitive people to avoid physical exertion outdoors.
results of previous measurements
In addition to these current measurements, News.de reported that an increased fine dust pollution in Lübeck was found on November 10, 2024. The highest measured fine dust value was 30 µg/m³, whereby the air quality index (LQI) was classified as "bad" in the red area. At several measuring stations, the limit value for fine dust (PM₂₅) was exceeded, which can have health effects for risk groups. The main causes of air pollution are seen in the combustion of fossil fuels, high traffic volume as well as industrial and agricultural pollutants.| Details | |
