Located on the southern Mornington Peninsula near Cape Schanck, the Moonah Course benefits from strong, consistent winds off Bass Strait that keep local air quality clean and well-ventilated year-round. Spring grass pollen from surrounding pasture and coastal grassland is the main seasonal consideration, while a severe summer bushfire season can occasionally send smoke haze across the peninsula. Isolation from major roads and industry keeps everyday pollution levels very low.

When is air pollution at its worst in The National Golf Club – Moonah Course?
The Moonah Course sees its clearest air for most of the year thanks to strong Bass Strait winds, with the main dips occurring during spring grass pollen season and, less often, during major summer bushfire smoke events affecting the wider peninsula. The sheltered moonah woodland setting can trap slightly more pollen locally than the peninsula's fully exposed dune courses.
Are air quality levels in The National Golf Club – Moonah Course based on measurements or forecasts?
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.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
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.
