Supplementary notes

* Based on the atmospheric pollution index (API) used in Central Asian countries, which was introduced in the USSR in 1991. It calculates "for the five substances found in the highest concentrations in relation to their degree of hazardousness. Air pollution is deemed to be very high, if the aggregate API exceeds 14; high, if 14 > API >7; relatively high, if 7 > API > 5; low, if API is < 5." The figures refer to the cities with API over 7.
The data are presented for federal subjects with the highest share of population living in highly polluted cities.

** Within the Krasnoyarsk Krai.
