União da Vitória's air quality reflects the upper Iguaçu river valley on the Paraná-Santa Catarina border at 840 metres, with vehicle emissions from the BR-476 and the surrounding timber, paper, and agribusiness operations contributing local sources in this highland border city. The elevated plateau position aids background dispersal, while cold winter temperature inversions in the southern Brazilian highlands and dry season burning from surrounding timber and agricultural operations contribute seasonal variation throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in União da Vitória?
União da Vitória residents notice reduced air quality mainly when eucalyptus and native Atlantic Forest species pollen peaks, and during spells of vehicle emissions from the BR-476 and the surrounding timber, paper, and agribusiness operations; conditions usually ease once the wet season or windier weather returns.
Are air quality levels in União da Vitória 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.
