Torreón's air quality reflects the flat Coahuila-Durango Nazas River La Laguna metropolitan position at 1,130 metres, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the metallurgy, dairy, and manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. Windblown Chihuahuan Desert dust generates elevated PM10, while winter inversions concentrate emissions under calm conditions and Torreón generally maintains moderate to elevated northern Mexican semi-arid basin metropolitan readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Torreón?

Torreón usually sees its poorest air quality when traffic emissions along with light manufacturing coincide with periods when calm, stagnant conditions settle in the surrounding valley. The surrounding valley terrain holds pollutants near the surface rather than letting them disperse. These wind events can carry dust in from the surrounding arid landscape.

Are air quality levels in Torreón 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.
