Weekly information on air pollution in Kyiv
According to observations from the stationary monitoring stations of the Central Geophysical Observatory named after Borys Sreznevskyi, from February 20 to 24 (at 01:00 and 07:00) in 2025, the air in Kyiv showed exceedances of the average daily maximum permissible concentrations:
- sulfur dioxide – exceeding by 1.3–2.5 times at Bessarabska and Halytska Squares, Beresteiskyi and Obolonskyi Avenues, and the following streets: Akademika Strazheska, Oleksandr Dovzhenko, Hetman Pavlo Polubotok, Kaunaska, Horikhuvatskyi Shlyakh, and Semena Skliarenka.

Weekly information on air pollution in Kyiv
According to observations at the stationary posts of the Borys Sreznevsky Central Geophysical Observatory, from March 18 to 23, 2024, the average daily maximum permissible concentrations were exceeded in the air of Kyiv:

Compared to the previous week, the formaldehyde content in the air has slightly increased.
According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, last week was dominated by cyclonic weather, which contributed to the dispersion of most pollutants. However, this trend will change in the next 2-3 days, with warming, southerly winds and no precipitation expected, which will not contribute to the dispersion of impurities.
19.03.2024
Weekly information on air pollution in Kyiv
According to observations at the stationary posts of the Borys Sreznevsky Central Geophysical Observatory, from March 11 to 16, 2024, the average daily maximum permissible concentrations were exceeded in the air of Kyiv:

- formaldehyde - by 1.0-1.9 times on Halytska and Bessarabska squares, Beresteyskyi and Obolonskyi avenues, Lesi Ukrainky boulevard, Akademika Strazheskoho, Dovzhenko, Hetman Pavlo Polubotka, Kaunaska and Skliarenka streets.
A total of 1523 atmospheric air samples were collected and analyzed at 16 stationary posts of the observatory from March 11 to 16, 2024.
The content of nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide and formaldehyde in the air has decreased compared to the previous week.
According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, the weather pattern will change in the next 2-3 days: precipitation and a slight decrease in air temperature are possible, which will help reduce the concentration of pollutants in the surface layer of the atmosphere.

A total of 1524 atmospheric air samples were collected and analyzed at 16 stationary posts of the Observatory from March 4 to 9, 2024.
Compared to the previous week, the content of nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide in the air increased.
According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, last week was dominated by anticyclonic weather, without precipitation, with low winds, which contributed to an increase in the concentration of pollutants in the surface layer of the atmosphere, but in the next 2-3 days it will change to cyclonic, which will lead to a decrease in concentrations.

A total of 1464 atmospheric air samples were collected and analyzed at 16 stationary posts of the observatory from February 26 to March 2, 2024.
Compared to the previous week, the content of nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide in the air increased.
According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, the predominantly cyclonic weather pattern with no precipitation, rising air temperature and weak winds with a southerly component contributed to the increase in pollutant concentrations, but this weather pattern will change in the next 2-3 days.
