Zumpango's air quality reflects Mexico City's northern metropolitan corridor in the Valley of Mexico at 2,282 metres adjacent to the new Felipe Ángeles International Airport, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the airport's aviation operations and industrial corridor contributing elevated NOₓ and PM2.5. The Valley of Mexico's topographic trapping compounds all emissions under inversions, while the new airport represents the most distinctive emerging local emission source and Zumpango generally maintains moderate to elevated Mexico City northern corridor readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Zumpango?

Zumpango usually sees its poorest air quality when vehicle traffic, airport and aviation operations, as well as shipbuilding and port operations coincide with periods when calm, stagnant conditions settle in the surrounding valley. Topographic enclosure in the valley lets pollution accumulate rather than clear out. These wind events can carry dust in from the surrounding arid landscape.

Are air quality levels in Zumpango 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.
