According to data from automatic monitoring stations at 09:00 on December 5, the amount of PM10 in Tashkent's air was 88.5 µg/m³ and did not exceed the established norm.
However, the PM2.5 indicator was 64 µg/m³, which was found to be 1.07 times higher than the effective norm of 60 µg/m³.
According to specialists, the rapidly changing temperature is also affecting the increase of fine particles in the air. Uzhydromet reported that an inversion process has occurred, where fine particles "accumulate" in the atmosphere, leading to an increase in indicators.
