Ōsaki's air quality reflects the Miyagi Prefecture Furukawa River valley's partial enclosure in the Tohoku agricultural corridor, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the rice farming, food processing, and manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. The surrounding Ou Mountains create topographic variation, while Pacific coastal maritime breezes provide background ventilation and Osaki generally maintains moderate to good conditions for a major Japanese Tohoku agricultural corridor city throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Ōsaki?
Ōsaki usually sees its poorest air quality when traffic on the surrounding roads, manufacturing activity, along with agricultural activity coincide with periods when the sea breeze weakens. Sea breezes typically keep conditions in check, except during still weather. This natural ventilation is one reason coastal areas often see better readings than inland cities.
Are air quality levels in Ōsaki 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.
