When is air pollution at its worst in Gander?
Gander's air quality rises and falls with the seasons, shaped by its aviation-history airport setting in central Newfoundland. Frequent storms and fog off the North Atlantic keep pollution levels low year-round, with occasional calm summer days the only time local emissions can briefly build up. Storm systems roll through often enough that pollution seldom has time to build up.
Are air quality levels in Gander 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.
