Cholula de Rivadabia's air quality reflects the flat Puebla-Tlaxcala plateau at 2,150 metres adjacent to the Great Pyramid of Cholula, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the tourism, manufacturing, and university corridor contributing local sources. The plateau's topographic enclosure creates concentration under inversions, while the elevated altitude worsens ozone formation and Cholula shares the broader Puebla metropolitan air quality challenges throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Cholula de Rivadabia?

Cholula de Rivadabia usually sees its poorest air quality when road traffic, manufacturing activity, together with seasonal tourism traffic coincide with periods when hot, still weather settles in. Heat and sunlight combine with emissions to form ozone at ground level. Cooler temperatures for the rest of the year keep this in check.

Are air quality levels in Cholula de Rivadabia 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.
