When is air pollution at its worst in The Pas?

The Pas's air quality is closely linked to the nearby Paper Excellence pulp mill, historically its dominant local emission source. For much of the year the air is clean and forest-fresh, but summer and early autumn carry real risk of smoke episodes when wildfires burn nearby or further north. Wind direction across the river determines how much of the industrial output drifts into town on any given day.

Are air quality levels in The Pas 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.
