When is air pollution at its worst in Melita?

Melita experiences a distinct seasonal pattern in air quality, tied to farmland of southwestern Manitoba surrounding it. Calm winter days sometimes trap local heating emissions close to the ground, while hot, dry summer stretches bring farm dust and, in bad years, drifting wildfire smoke. Strong prairie winds usually clear the air within a day or two, though nearby fields can add dust during planting and harvest.

Are air quality levels in Melita 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.
