Air quality today
The air quality in Nordhausen today is classified as moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, fine particulate matter measured at a reference value of 15.8 µg/m³, while the corresponding PM10 level stands at 21.9 µg/m³ based on four valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the current assessment for this location. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
Latest sensor values
PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The dataset for Nordhausen contains measurements for five key pollutants – nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter 10 µm or less (PM₁₀) and particulate matter 2.5 µm or less (PM₂.₅). All values are reported in micrograms per cubic metre (µg/m³). The city’s air‑quality record is built from a single monitoring station, giving one row of data for each pollutant, so the total number of rows is five.
Freshness varies across the series. The most recent updates for NO₂, O₃, PM₁₀ and PM₂.₅ were recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC, which falls within the “updated within three days” category. In contrast, the NO measurement dates back to 2024‑03‑11 at 11:00 UTC and is flagged as older data. Because each pollutant has only one reported value, the minimum, median and maximum are identical for every parameter: NO sits at 1.24740005 µg/m³, NO₂ at 25.06092 µg/m³, O₃ at 30.1126671 µg/m³, PM₁₀ at 21.9244671 µg/m³ and PM₂.5 at 15.8136921 µg/m³. This lack of spread means the dataset does not capture variability over time or across different locations within the city.
Consequently, the coverage is limited: a single site provides a snapshot rather than a comprehensive picture of air quality throughout Nordhausen. While most pollutants have very recent readings, the older NO value highlights that some components may be less up‑to‑date. Users should keep in mind that conditions can differ by neighbourhood and moment, and the current data set reflects only the specific times and place recorded.
