VECTORIAL · SIGNALS

Red plumes = tropospheric NO₂ — the gas factories and diesel trucks emit. More red = more industry running. The same signal that flagged Wuhan's slowdown two weeks before official data in Jan 2020.

Translation

El satélite *TROPOMI* — Sentinel-5P de la ESA — mide *NO₂*, un gas que sale de motores y termoeléctricas. Más NO₂ sobre una región industrial = más actividad económica. Es el indicador que detectó el frenón en Wuhan dos semanas antes que las cifras oficiales de enero 2020.

Methodology

Source

ESA Sentinel-5P TROPOMI via Sentinel Hub Statistical API

Cadence

Weekly

Sensors / APIs

Sentinel Hub Statistical API, TROPOMI NO₂ L2 product

AOI

20 industrial AOIs (Wuhan, Shanghai, Detroit, LA, Houston, Antwerp, Mumbai, etc.) — pre-defined GeoJSON polygons

Baseline

Same-week 3-year mean (cloud-filtered)

Uncertainty

Cloud cover gates the signal — clouded weeks publish "no signal" rather than fake reads

Known biases

TROPOMI revisit gap: 1-2 days at mid-latitudes
Weather (wind speed, boundary-layer height) modulates NO₂ residence time
Diesel-truck traffic confounds factory-only attribution
