Ar Ramādī's air quality reflects the flat Iraqi Euphrates River valley at 56 metres, with vehicle density, conflict-damaged infrastructure, and construction corridor generating elevated PM2.5. Shamal winds deliver intense Iraqi Desert dust storms, while the conflict's infrastructure destruction has created uncontrolled emission sources and Ar Ramadi maintains moderate to elevated conflict-recovery Euphrates valley readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Ar Ramādī?
In Ar Ramādī, road traffic together with construction dust are the main local sources, with conditions worsening when dry, windy weather picks up. Dust carried on these winds adds substantially to particulate levels. These episodes tend to cluster in spring and autumn.
Are air quality levels in Ar Ramādī 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.
