Worst air pollution Kooyonga Golf Club – Championship Course - Adelaide, today and tomorrow

On 4 August 2026, overall air quality in Kooyonga Golf Club – Championship Course is good. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 16.7/100. Pollution peaks around 2:30 PM (O3: 16.7/100).

On 5 August 2026, air quality conditions in Kooyonga Golf Club – Championship Course will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at good at 13.2/100. Pollution peaks around 2:30 PM (O3: 13.2/100).

The best conditions at Kooyonga tend to come on days with a steady sea breeze off the gulf, which keeps the air fresh across the course. The main disruption to expect is smoke haze during summer bushfire season, when fires in the Hills or beyond can affect visibility and air quality even this close to the coast, so it's worth checking fire conditions before a summer round.

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.

Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.

During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
