Towada's air quality benefits from its exceptional Aomori Prefecture Pacific Ocean and Towada Lake highland position, with consistent Pacific coastal and Tohoku highland breezes providing reliable ventilation. Vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the JGSDF Takigahara base, garlic farming, and tourism corridor contribute local sources, while the outstanding highland lake setting and clean Aomori boreal forest generally maintain Towada at moderate to good conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Towada?
In Towada, traffic emissions, agricultural activity, and tourism-related traffic are the main local sources, with conditions worsening when the sea breeze weakens. Onshore breezes usually help clear the air, but pollution can build up when winds are light. This natural ventilation is one reason coastal areas often see better readings than inland cities.
Are air quality levels in Towada 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.
