Air quality today

The air quality in Santa Cruz de Tenerife is classified as Good. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5. Current measurements show a PM2.5 concentration of 7.0 µg/m³ and a PM10 concentration of 20.0 µg/m³, based on 25 valid observations. These concentrations are measured against reference values of 7.0 µg/m³ for PM2.5 and 20.0 µg/m³ for PM10, which serve as benchmarks for the Good category. A total of 25 valid measurements contributed to this assessment.

Data is shown via OpenAQ, which aggregates measurements from monitoring stations in the region. The figures represent the most recent set of readings available from the monitoring network. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The OpenAQ feed for Santa Cruz de Tenerife contains 66 recent measurements drawn from 11 monitoring sites. Of those rows, 26 were recorded within the last 30 days while 40 are older than a month, and none are from today or the previous week. All seven pollutants tracked by the network – carbon monoxide, nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter ≤ 10 µm, particulate matter ≤ 2.5 µm, and sulfur dioxide – appear in the dataset, but the amount of data varies markedly between them.

Nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide each have 13 recent rows from 11 stations, with the latest values logged on 2026‑02‑09 15:00 UTC. Their measurements range from 0 µg/m³ up to 40 µg/m³ for NO₂ (median 10 µg/m³) and 0 µg/m³ up to 7 µg/m³ for SO₂ (median 5 µg/m³). Ozone is reported from 11 rows at 10 stations, also last updated on 2026‑02‑09 15:00 UTC, spanning 0‑100 µg/m³ with a median of 69 µg/m³. Particulate matter data are slightly older, with the most recent PM10 and PM2.5 values recorded on 2026‑02‑03 01:00 UTC; PM10 ranges 12‑62 µg/m³ (median 17.5 µg/m³) and PM2.5 1‑20 µg/m³ (median 6.5 µg/m³). Carbon monoxide appears in six rows from six stations, last refreshed on 2026‑02‑09 15:00 UTC, covering 100‑500 µg/m³ (median 300 µg/m³). Nitrogen monoxide is the sparsest, with only three rows from three stations, the newest entry dated 2024‑02‑09 00:00 UTC and values between 41‑54 µg/m³ (median 48 µg/m³).

These figures show that while the city’s air‑quality monitoring provides a broad pollutant list, the depth of coverage is uneven: some gases are captured at many sites with recent timestamps, whereas others rely on a handful of older observations. Consequently, the snapshot reflects a mix of current and historical conditions that can differ across neighborhoods and time periods.
