The indicators measure annual UK levels of pollution from particulates (PM10) and ozone (O3), the two pollutants thought to have the greatest health impacts, as well as the number of days on which levels of any one of five pollutants were ‘moderate or higher’. The results presented are provisional, but provide a good early indication of the final results which will be published in April.
