Jocotitlán's air quality reflects the flat Estado de México Lerma River valley at 2,600 metres in the Mazahua highlands, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the agricultural and services character contributing modest local sources. The elevated highland position aids dispersal on most days, while the Mexico City-Toluca metropolitan regional background influences the area and Jocotitlán generally maintains moderate to good conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Jocotitlán?
The biggest local contributors to pollution in Jocotitlán are vehicle traffic along with farming and agricultural processing, particularly once winds are light and dispersion is poor. Background emissions and local weather both shape how conditions change from day to day. Conditions can otherwise vary considerably with the weather.
Are air quality levels in Jocotitlán 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.
