Masbate in Philippines reflects the Philippine Visayas Masbate Island coastal position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the fishing, mining, and services corridor contributing local sources. Consistent Philippine Sea trade winds provide maritime ventilation, while the outstanding coastal exposure generally maintains Masbate at moderate to good conditions for a Philippine island provincial city throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Masbate?

Pollution in Masbate typically rises when road traffic, quarrying activity, and harbour and shipping traffic combine, especially once maritime winds die down. Onshore breezes usually help clear the air, but pollution can build up when winds are light. This coastal advantage is less pronounced during still, high-pressure weather.

Are air quality levels in Masbate 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.
