When is air pollution at its worst in Riversdale?

Riversdale sees clear seasonal swings in air quality, driven in part by its older commercial streets on Saskatoon's west bank. Winter's stiller, colder spells can trap local emissions close to the ground, while summer heat and dry conditions sometimes bring smoke drifting down from northern wildfires. The flat, exposed landscape means wind usually disperses pollution fairly quickly once it picks up.

Are air quality levels in Riversdale 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.
