Santa Rosa's air quality in Brazil reflects the Rio Grande do Sul northwestern plateau at 328 metres, with vehicle emissions from the RS-163 and surrounding soybean, wheat, and poultry processing agribusiness contributing local sources. The elevated plateau position aids background dispersal, while dry season burning from surrounding agricultural land contributes seasonal PM2.5 variation and cold winter temperature inversions in the southern Brazilian highlands add localised wood-burning emissions during the heating season.

Are air quality levels in Santa Rosa 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.
