Worst air pollution Alma Doepel Restoration Project - Docklands, today and tomorrow

On 30 August 2026, overall air quality in Alma Doepel Restoration Project is good. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 16.9/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 AM (NO2: 16.9/100).

On 31 August 2026, air quality conditions in Alma Doepel Restoration Project will be worse than today, with AQI forecast at fair at 33.8/100. Pollution peaks around 11:00 PM (NO2: 33.8/100).

Air quality often dips most sharply during winter in this area, as reduced winter air movement lets heating emissions and wood smoke build up locally. Summer shifts the concern toward bushfire smoke here too, as smoke drifting in from regional bushfires combines with the heat and sunlight that also drive ozone.

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.
