Compare campus air
Start with the two campuses you actually care about. Compare their latest linked-monitor PM2.5, then check whether the same pattern held across the exact same archived hours. Extra campuses stay optional context rather than crowding the main comparison.
Research status · pilot / method development
This live comparison is exploratory and is not a primary-study result. September observations are being used to validate collection, provenance, QC and analysis behavior. The frozen prospective primary period begins 1 October 2026.
Direct comparison
The default is 24 hours so a young archive does not open on a mostly empty 7-day chart. Switch to 7 days when you want a wider window.

Right now · latest linked-monitor snapshot
145 µg/m³ versus 245 µg/m³ — a 100.0 µg/m³ difference between the two linked ambient reference monitors right now.
JNU
145 µg/m³
VMMC
245 µg/m³
Ambient reference-monitor readings only. This is not a measurement of personal exposure or air inside either campus.
Now
JNU has the lower current linked-monitor PM2.5.

Do the two views agree?
Same direction
The campus-linked monitor that is lower now was also lower on average across the paired archived hours in this window.
A ↔ B same-hour history
188.7 µg/m³ versus 260.1 µg/m³ — 71.4 µg/m³ lower (about 27% below VMMC) across the exact same archived hours.
Optional historical context
The direct A-vs-B result above stays pairwise. Multi-campus ranking below uses hours shared by every independent selected monitor.

Lower here means a lower average PM2.5 at the linked physical monitor across the exact same archived hours. It is not a long-term health ranking of the campuses.

Interpretation boundary
This compares the nearby monitoring stations associated with each campus, not personal exposure and not air inside classrooms, hostels or hospitals. Campuses sharing one physical reference monitor are grouped into one independent series for historical ranking, threshold summaries and charting. Pre-archive time is never coded as missing. Coverage is computed only over archive-eligible hours, and the ranking uses only PM2.5 hours shared by every independent selected reference monitor.
